Who Loves the Little Lamb? Book Review
I love reading books to my children but there are times I forget why I had these beautiful kids. This next book: Who Loves the Little Lamb? by Lezlie Evans helps me to remember.
“From dawn till after day is done, Mama loves her little one.”
A fussy lamb is crying, so her mama dries her tears. A noisy bird is chirping, so his mama gently sweetens his song. A sleepy kangaroo is fading, and her mama carries her in her safe, cozy pouch. Even when kids are not at their best, mothers love their little ones. Lezlie Evans’ warm, rhyming text delivers this reassuring message, and David McPhail’s charming watercolors of baby animals and their mamas strike the perfect tone: safe, sweet, and playful.
Evans’ displays her love of children in every book she releases. Who Loves the Little Lamb, inspired by her own six children, is a genuine reflection of her experience as a mother of young children. Booklist called Evans’ text, “Uncommonly clever” and the Children’s Book Guide states, “Who Loves the Little Lamb will be a favorite for your kids for years to come. It’s the kind of story that your children will ask to hear over and over. The tone and colors of the book will give them a sense of security. This tale of unconditional love will become a classic in your home.”
Retails on Amazon for $10.87.
My take: This is one of those books that delighted both my children and myself. The boys sat quietly (a very rare occurrence) and were almost lulled to sleep by the rhythmic words. I loved the soft illustrations and the sense of security the book gave my boys. It also helped me to remember to take a deep breath when I feel frustrated with their antics and to just love them for who they are.
