“all kinds of mommies do all kinds of work“

Mommies at Work by Eve Merriam is a great book for a classroom discussion on careers, family roles, and diversity! I would love to hear students thoughts and shares on this book.

Mommies at Work by Eve Merriam is a nonfiction children's book that explores the many different jobs that mothers can have. Through simple, rhyming text and illustrations, the book shows a variety of moms working in different roles such as doctors, teachers, and artists while also caring for their families. It inspires children to appreciate the hard work and dedication of their mothers.

“Llama llama, red pajama, feels alone, without his mama.“

This book has such a sweet message and is a great opportunity for teaching about emotions. Young book lovers will enjoy listening to this story and learning how to read from it.

This was one of my favorite rhyming books to listen as a child. This story has such a cute ending along with some great advice / messages for children. Love that there is also a series of llama books.

“Llama Llama red pajama reads a story with his mama.“

This was such a cute book to read! It teaches a lesson on emotions like worry and comfort. This is a great pick for young children! Makes a great bedtime story!

Llama Llama Red Pajama by Anna Dewdney, 2005. This is a sweet and heartfelt story about a llama and his mama doing their everyday nightly routine. Llama's mom reads him a bedtime story and then goes on to do household chores. Llama waits patiently for his mama to return but then starts to worry that she won't come back! He shouts loudly for his mama to come and she reminds him that she is always with him in his heart.

I participated in the Kellogg reading program by buying cereal and a partner product to get two book credits. These are the books I chose for my 18 month old daughter! ☺️📚
