Congratulations Janet!
Summer is here! That means more reading time to the kiddos. So whether you are reading before bed, at the beach, the park, or even on your camping trip, you will love “Because Your Mommy Loves You”.
This book may be for meant for kids, but Because Your Mommy Loves you is a wonderful reminder of the to all the loving things a supportive mom does each day.
“When a little boy and his mom go camping, mini-disasters abound, and there are lots of opportunities for Mom to step in and fix everything. But instead, with a loving touch, this mommy shows her child ways to do things for himself, going far to encourage her child’s independence. And there is still plenty of opportunity for snuggling under the stars.”
One FTM Reader will win a copy of Andrew Clements “Because You Mommy Loves You”and a $50.00 Visa Card

My twin sons would love this book because they enjoy reading anything by Andrew Clements. We discovered his books last summer when we read “Lost and Found” (a story about twin boys!) Earlier this month we read ‘Lunch Money’ and now we are reading ‘Extra Credit’.
We checked out Clement’s website and as a parent I was impressed with the additional questions he included for his books.
Robin says
This would be a great book for my kids.
Becca says
My daughter loves camping and I’ve downloaded camping storybooks to my kindle just for bedtime reading while we are camping. This book would be great to add to our camping box for good night reading.

Susan Salerno says
I love the idea of this book. I work with foster children and I feel such pressure to prepare them for the “real world,” and that is always difficult. You want to give them the love and nurturing that some have never had, but you also have to know that they can handle things on their own. I struggle every day with whether or not to “fix their problem.”
Kristi says
Not only a perfect book book for young children, I think it would be a great graduation gift for my soon-to-be senior. A reminder of how much her mom loves her and that she can do anything she sets her mind to.

I believe my son would love this book, I read the overview and the story seems like it would touch base with what is going on in our lives. I try to show my son how he can gain independence and realize that I make him do certain things because I love him and want him to be able to succeed in life, not because I don’t love him.
