 I Love My Mommy Because...by Laurel Porter-Gaylord On each page of this book you will find animals and humans featured with their babies. A simple sentence below the picture states why this certain baby loves their mother. A kitten softly meows to her mother and says "She listens when I talk." On the page with sheep and nursing lamb it says "She feeds me when I'm hungry." Your child will soon realize that all mothers, no matter what species, do basically the same for their young, just in different ways. HB, Breastfeeding
