Mother O' Mine: A Mother's Treasury
By Mary EngelbreitCelebrated illustrator, veteran mother, and beloved daughter Mary Engelbreit has created a beautiful and poignant tribute to the one woman most deserving of our affection and gratitude-Mom! Motherhood has been an endless source of inspiration for Mary's art since she joined the ranks of the weary but willing. Mothers are their children's nurturers, heroes, booboo fixers, cheerleaders, confidantes, entertainers, and first loves. No one is as adept at depicting these many facets of motherhood as Mary Engelbreit. In this beautifully produced keepsake-with its cloth cover, gilded edges, quality paper, and ribbon marker-you'll find excerpts from classic literature such as Little Women, contemporary prose from authors such as Alice Walker and Anna Quindlen, beloved songs and lullabies, and for the first time ever, the true story of Ann Estelle, including family photographs. Mary has liberally illustrated this treasury edition with never before published art. Every fan of Mary Engelbreit will want this classic for their own collection-and several extras for the mothers and grandmothers in their lives.
