Mom's Busy Days

Written by Elise Raucy and Illustrated by Estelle Meens
Maggie and Ethan’s mom has a lot to do. Carpools, work emails, laundry…the list is endless! But when life feels like it’s going by too quickly, she makes sure to take some time to cherish the moments spent with her family. Sometimes a busy schedule can get overwhelming and waylay a parent’s best intentions for dedicated family time. Mom’s Busy Days is a sweet story that explains to children that while parents have a lot to do, even the busiest families can find time to savor those little moments and special time together. Includes a “Note to Parents and Caregivers” by Julia Martin Burch, PhD.
