Many psychologists stress the importance of always keeping in touch about your love to your child. A mother’s love is extremely important to assert, for instance, after a child doing something wrong and being reprimanded for it.

Children rely on their mother’s love and acceptance during their formative years, and these books are another great way for them to learn how they are seen by their parents. Over time, a mother’s support through unconditional love becomes a driving force for confidence. No reason not to invest in some amazing books on mothers’ love then, eh?

#3 Love You Forever by Robert Munsch

Love You Forever by Robert Munsch
If you’re a parent, it’s hard to get through this book without your voice quivering a least a little bit. It’s a simple story of a mother’s enduring love for her son from birth through her old age, and the power of nurturing being passed down to the next generation. I’m a child therapist and I recommend this book to parents (even if their kids have aged out of reading as part of a bedtime routine) to help deepen the parent/child bond. I only recently learned about the deeper backstory. The author wrote much of the book as a way of grieving the loss of two stillborn children. The true life story has a happy ending as the author and his wife were able to take the risk to try again and had other biological children that survived.

#4 My Mom Always Looks After Me So Much! by Sean Taylor

My Mom Always Looks After Me So Much! by Sean Taylor
Little Gorilla is going to the doctor for a shot. His mom says it’s because she has to look after him. But that’s the problem-his mom always looks after him so much. First, she makes him eat broccoli, then, whenever he sneezes, he has to put on an extra sweater. And now a shot! But it’s not all bad-the doctor gives Little Gorilla a stick-thing that smells of strawberries for being brave. He loves it-but then he leaves it on the bus on the way home! Little Gorilla is distraught-but his mom takes him back to the doctor for another stick thing. His mom really does look after him so much.

#5 We Go To Bo by Larry Baum

We Go To Bo by Larry Baum
When I was teaching my children to read, I thought it would be easier for them to learn short words than long words, so I looked for books with only short words. But I had trouble finding them (I mean the books, not the words!). So I wrote a story with words no longer than two letters, hoping that it can help other children learn reading more easily. I tried to include characters, action, and humor, which was challenging with a vocabulary limited to 2-letter words! I wanted kids around the world to have it, so I hired an illustrator and self-published the paperback book

#6 BO, GO UP! (The Bo Books) by Larry Baum

BO, GO UP! (The Bo Books) by Larry Baum
Later, teachers gave me suggestions on phonics and easy sounds for learning to read, and I incorporated those in a new two-letter word book and accompanied it with a book of three-letter words, and even a book of only one-letter “words.” The goal is to make it easier for children to read their very first book on their own, and gain confidence so that they can read more at a younger age.
