A tender board book about a child’s curiosity and a mother’s love, with springtime illustrations by Olga Skomorokova

Why are you so strong, Mommy?
Why? So I can scoop you up into the biggest, best bear hugs.
Why do you brush your teeth, Mommy?
Why? So I can smile bright whenever you need it.

It’s every kid’s favourite word, but what if instead of growing impatient, Mommy Bear uses each new question to show her love for her inquisitive cub. From Tamara Girardi, author of Why, Daddy? Why?, comes a new list of “whys” and new ways to say "Because I love you."
