Books

What child's book do you most identify with, either because it's you or because it brings back fond memories? My favorite is "Are You My Mother?' A little bird falls from the nest and travels all over asking everyone he meets if they are his mother. He had yet to meet his mother before his fall from the nest. She had gone to find food for him in case he hatched. The reason this story is my favorite is because it was the one my son always wanted me to read. I acted it out with funny voices and flew him around the room as I read it. It was a special time that we shared and one of my favorite memories. I can't look at the book without tearing up, in a good way. Books are an amazing gift when shared.
