Mommy Mine


“Mommy Mine” written by Tim Warnes and illustrated by Jane Chapman is a poem about Mommies in the animal world. Each page shows a different Mommy and Baby animal and sweet pictures of “Mommy kisses”, “Mommy cuddle” and “Mommy chatter”. With alligators, mice, monkeys, birds, elephants and giraffes young children will enjoy learning about “Mommy spiney”, “Mommy tiny” and “Mommy loud”.

This is one of very very few books that my 9 to 18-month-olds in my class will sit through and listen to every word. The rhyme keeps their attention and the pictures give them something bright and colorful to look at. The message of the book is simple “The best mom in the whole world is Mommy Mine”. A very precious children’s book, especially for the youngest listeners.
