Industry Reviews
“This picture book’s rhythmic language is as comforting as the swaying of a loving mother’s arms; a sweet lulling, naptime read. Subtle touches like 'I lift up my sleep sack...' make this addition to the new baby genre feel fresh and modern.”
"The acknowledgement of the child's perception of motherly love is also especially nicely done, and is rare in a picture book world presented from adult viewpoints: 'No nap, Dear Mama! I smile sweetly and bat my long lashes. But nap time is calling me.'"
"5 STARS! Ceece Kelley's 'Dear Mama's Loving Arms' celebrates the love and closeness of an infant and his mother. This is a grand selection for a bedtime story or perhaps just before a nap."
