HAPPY MAMAS
Written by KATHLEEN T. PELLEY; Illustrated by RUTH E. HARPER

Happy Mamas is a lyrical read aloud that pays tribute to the universal joys of mothering in the animal and human kingdoms. Charming illustrations depict all the activities that bring joy to a mama and her baby over the course of a day: feeding her cubs bundles of bamboo shoots; teaching her calf how to trumpet a loud jungle cheer; playing peek-a-boo; watching her chicks fly from the nest; singing a serenade to the man on the moon; or crooning owly lullabies through the deep, dark woods. But as the moon glows and the stars shine, what is it that makes all mamas — from desert to jungle, from forest to field, from land to sea — happiest by far? Mamas and babies everywhere will delight in this happy romp — a perfect ode to motherhood.

Charlie goes to bed a little bit early because he wants to make sure he gets a goodnight’s sleep. He wants to be a good helper for Miss Stella.

Help me to always help others. Amen.” Charlie learns he can overcome his shyness and be a servant like Jesus.
