When Mama leaves her young penguin, Kipling, he knows she'll return home soon—yet he still can't help but miss her. After all, Pillow Mama won't read, Picture Mama won't laugh, and Snow Mama is too cold to cuddle.

But then Kipling receives a special delivery from Mama, including a note that reads:

My love for you stretches across the wide ocean,
through day and night,
from earth to sky
and back again.

And Kipling knows that no matter where Mama is, he is loved. Soon, Mama comes home, and Kipling ends the day where he belongs—right in her arms.

With a heartwarming story and tender illustrations, Jeanette Bradley's debut picture book is perfect for Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, and any day when a child needs a reminder of the strength of a mother's love.

Industry Reviews

"Will provide both reassurance to children missing their own loved ones and ideas for staying connected." --Kirkus Reviews

"A gentle story for the tiny about the difficulty of dealing with even a short, benign absence of a loved one . . . The internet may have made the world smaller, but this book will help console kids who know that FaceTime just isn't the same." --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
