Publisher's Note
Endearing illustrations and simple phrases combine in a book that shows how animal mothers care for their babies with the same tender love as human mothers do, and the line "She tucks me in," depicts a kangaroo mother with her joey.

Industry reviews
In keeping with the spirit of the season, animals and their offspring feature in four titles released just in time for Mother's Day and Father's Day. In I Love My Mommy Because... and I Love My Daddy Because... , both by Laurel Porter-Gaylord, parents give their babies ample reasons to be loved: "She tucks me in" (a kangaroo pats the joey in her pouch); "He makes me laugh" (a father chimpanzee engages in some monkey business). Ashley Wolff's mostly realistic, but always adorable animal portraits will have readers cooing.

This auction is for 2 books by Laurel Porter-Gaylord:  msrp $7.99 each

  1. I Love My Mommy Because
  2. I Love My Daddy Because

Cuddle up and take a child into the world of animals with this adorable concept book about parents and babies.  The clever text borrows simple phrases from a child's experience to show that animal daddies and mommies take care of their young, too.  Illustrated on sturdy stock in soft, beautiful colors, with labels above each picture so even the youngest child can point to the animals and say their names.  This is perfect for sharing on a loving lap.

 

Condition: very good hardcovers; NO tears or bends.  The Mommy book is like new but has an inscription.  The Daddy book has some minor flaws to the cover only.  It has a very tiny bit of wear on the front corner point.  I should also point out that it appears something heavy fell against the Daddy book and left an imprint, but it did not puncture the cover.  On the back spine, fingernails make small punctures.  There is an identical inscription in each book on the inside front cover.  You can certainly create a personal library label to cover it. 

 

Faith’s Promise:  I have a smoke-free home and I choose books that do not smell musty either.  I try to find only quality books in very good to excellent condition.  Each one is wiped down before being sold.  I describe them as accurately as possible.  If I am grossly in error, I will make it right. 

 

Happy to combine for low media shipping.
