I browsed through this at a bookstore and simply fell in love with the pictures! This is a photographic tribute to motherhood - there are pictures of moms and kids at play, in key life events, on the way to school etc. There are celebrity moms, e.g. Princess Di, and also ordinary mothers. The photographs are enhanced by the insertion of quotes and explanatory text. These photos put a smile on my face and made me feel blessed to be a mother, and reminded me of memories of my own mother -those snapshots that I carry in my heart of special moments shared between my mom and me - they may never have been captured on camera, but those memories live on in my heart forever.This might be a nice gift for Mother's Day, perhaps accompanied with a card and pictures of one's own moments with one's mom.
I bought this book as a gift for my mother, and I just know she'll love it. The photos are truly lovely, and the quotes endearing and funny. I was brought to tears several times by the book, and would definitely recommend it.
Great book in great condition.
