About This Book
In this poignant collection of poetry and photographs, Myers evokes the special bond between mother and child with the simple and timeless imagery of childhood -- a warm bed, the morning sunlight, a hissing kettle, a lazy afternoon. By turns serious, whimsical, and joyful, this exquisite collection is a glorious celebration of family life and love.About the Authors or Illustrators
