5.0 out of 5 stars Touching, July 8, 1999

By A Customer

The book, while written for children, will grab mothers by the heartstrings. Every day activities mothers do with their children are approached with new perspective: how mother and child can and do bond doing things that are normally taken for granted! Struggling, newly single mothers will appreciate the support. Happily married, devoted mothers will appreciate the acknowledgement of their efforts. What mothers do Does Make a Difference! Enjoy and appreciate - and feel appreciated!

This is the book my three-year-old wants me to read to him every night before bed. I think we both know all the words to it by heart now and, as a mother, it's a special time together with a very special book.

This review is from: We're Very Good Friends, My Mother and I (Paperback)

This is probably my very favorite of all of the childrens books our family owns. It shows the special bond between a mother and son, when doing everyday things like shopping, cooking, playing games, acting silly together, and just cuddling. Sometimes these little everyday things, are what mean the most, and the author really points this out well. I have never made it through this book without tears in my eyes, and a hug with my son at the end. One thing to keep in mind though, is that although the author doesn't ever say if the child is a boy or a girl, the illustrations look like a boy. This book is perfect for our us, because I have a boy, but I'm not sure if it would have the same impact if I had a girl. Just something to keep in mind. P.K. Hallinan has written a series of We're Very Good Friends Books, with Dad, Grandpa, Grandma, Aunt etc..., and I highly recommend all of them. He is my favorite childrens author.
