Product Description

From Amazon

This is the classic from which many of our staff first learned to read, starting us on a path of unremitting bibliophilia. Are You My Mother? follows a confused baby bird who's been denied the experience of imprinting as he asks cows, planes, and steam shovels the Big Question. In the end he is happily reunited with his maternal parent in a glorious moment of recognition. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Buy the Board Book Edition May 13 2003
By A Customer
Format:Board book
This 1 star review is for the board book edition -- certainly the harcover gets 5+ stars; it is a classic that should be in every child's library. But why does Random House insist on abridging its catalog to get them to fit into board book format? The board book strips down a story that's already quite simple, and takes all the flavor and joy out of it.

Bottom line: if you want to enjoy "Are You My Mother?" go and buy the "complete" hardcover edition. If you need something sturdy that your child is going to teethe on, buy a Zwiekback biscuit.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great reading Nov 26 2007
By David TOP 1000 REVIEWER
Format:Board book
I love this book! I browsed throught it at a book store and the decision to buy it was almost immediat. It is really very emotional for a child to lose his mother, so I could not put the book down until the mother was found. It reminds me of anther book titled Why Some Cats are Rascals, Book 1, in which a group of cats got lost while looking for freedom...

5.0 out of 5 stars Warm fuzzy memories Jun 28 2004
By Rayna Gorowitz
Format:Hardcover
A fave of mine as a young'un, this tender tale will tickle the funnybone and touch the heart as the adorable little birdling asks various animals and items if they are his mother (who went to get food for him!)LOVED the scene with the earthmover! Those who said it was scary and about child abandonment need to lighten up. :-) Who hasn't gotten separated from their folks when they were little (like by wandering off in stores and such)A must read for everyone's childhood.
