The book Are you my mother was my favorite story as a child. My father would make the crane noises "VROOM" and I loved that. I recommend this book to any parents out there, its short, easy for a kid to read, and has a great plot.
I remember I used to sit in my grandma’s lap while she read me that book. She read it so much she had it memorized. I wish I would of kept my copy now.
This along with "But No Elephants" were my favorites when I was a young'un. And I still skim through them when I go home once in a while.
we've got that book for our kids. they are older now (15,13 and 10), but they always loved it. i dont think they would let me give it away now, even if they dont read it. ....for sentimental reasons... haha, so cute
this is one of my most vivid books from when i was younger. it used to always make me so sad haha. great book.
ahh, i'd forgotten about this book untill i saw the thread. I loved it when i was a child. My dad used to read it to me heaps. Good memories
i was obsessed with this story as a kid. I still have all my childhood books, which are all actually my much much older brothers and sisters hand-me-downs. It's very easy to replace your childhood collection these days, just hop into a thrift shop...especially big ones like Value Village/Savers. They'll only cost between 10-99 cents.
