The world of children’s literature covers every topic, from potty training to pets, but it’s the books about that special bond between mother and child that typically stay on the bookshelf long after a kid has moved onto chapter books and sci-fi series. That’s probably because we love to read these stories to children so much. And these mommy-and-me children’s books about moms and their love for their babies are worth holding onto and passing to the next generation long after your own babies have grown and flown.
For some serious quality time with your kiddo, turn toward these titles that tackle the tender moments every child shares with its mama. There are stories about unconditional love, tales about the healing power of moms’ hugs, books about how moms can make room to love all of their children equally, and stories about how when it feels like no one cares, your mom will always be there for you.
And because a kids’ book just wouldn’t be the same without gorgeous illustrations, this list includes books that have imaginative imagery to match the storylines with vivid pictures that will pull at your heartstrings each time you turn the page — page-turners, all of them.
