If I Could

By Susan Milord

With endearing illustrations and a simple heart-tugging text, here is a picture book ode to the ineffable bond between mother and child. From the first rays of the morning sun to the last nod of a tiny head at bedtime, a toddler and mother share a blissfully ordinary day. But there is nothing ordinary about the love between them -- a love that is as bright as flowers, as lovely as a song, and as deep as the ocean.

A Mother's Promise

I just love this book. It's the "perfect" book for every mother. It says it all in just a few short pages. As a mother myself, I can definitely relate to the Author. It's a book worth getting and reading over and over again. I know I will.

Great book!

I fell in love with this book the first time I read it. As an early childhood educator as well as a Mom, I found it to be a wonderful, heartwarming story for a mother to read to her child. The illustrations are beautiful also. I purchased several and have given them all as baby shower gifts. Now I need more. I highly recommend!
