Description

Bestselling author and award-winning actress Julianne Moore pays homage to all the Muttis, Mammas, and Mamans who are from another country in her picture book. A foreign mom may have different customs such as wearing special clothes for holidays, styling hair in old-fashioned braids, and cooking traditional recipes. Despite these differences, the book celebrates that a foreign mom is clearly the best. Illustrated by Meilo So, this story highlights the diverse world we live in and captures a range of children's feelings, from embarrassment to love.
