A must-have for any nursery! This bestselling series adds another charming picture book that imagines creatures all across the animal kingdom as kiddos showing affection to their mamas - making it the perfect purchase for Mother's Day and Valentine's Day. What if animals did what YOU do? If animals said "I love you, Mama," Wombat would work long and hard on his Thank-You-for-Being-My-Mama card. Kookaburra would busily bake Mama's beloved beetle-bug cake. Wallaby and Mama would go for a walk, speaking of love in their hisssss-hiss talk. Each animal would show Mama love in their own special way. Featuring playful rhymes and adorable art, the story highlights the joys of the mother-child relationship through an imaginative lens. If Animals Said I Love You, Mama is ideal for bedtime and gift-giving. Other books in this hit series: If Animals Said I Love You, If Animals Celebrated Christmas, If Animals Went to School, If Animals Gave Thanks, If Animals Tried to Be Kind, If Animals Trick-or-Treated, If Animals Went to Work, If Animals Celebrated Easter, and If Animals Loved Books.
