Thanks netgalley and booksgosocial for the arc
I loved this book, I enjoyed the story with great illustrations and diversity inclusion. The young boys enjoyed this story of appreciation too.
This was a very sweet book that is good for showing appreciation to the mothers of the world. It depicted many different families and captured the simplicity of motherly love.
What a lovely message to send to all Mom's. I read this one with my group of children and we had a great discussion on the things mom's do for us. This story was lovely and the illustrations were very well done and showed a great range of diversity.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
I loved the mission statement at the beginning of the book. There were a lot of different representations in this book which was BEAUTIFUL to see- all different looks, abilities, clothes, and ways to show love. Excited to see the next books in the series coming out soon- thank you daddy, grandpa, grandma, and teacher!
Very cute! A lot of diversity within the moms and the families which was great to see. There were obviously a lot of sweet simple thank yous but also highlighting mom saying sorry when it's needed is super important and I am really glad to see it was included. This is definitely a sweet book any mom would love to receive.
An absolute delight to read - Thank You, Mommy's art is whimsical and its message is simple yet lovely. It features families of all different backgrounds, making it relatable for any young reader.
My daughter and I really loved this book! It made her smile the whole time I read to her. She even snuck in some sweet glances my way.
I loved the illustrations, they were bright and intricate. This book showed a wide range of diversity, capturing many different ethnic families.
Not only did this book teach children WHY they can be thankful, it also showed HOW they can show their thanks.
This book celebrates Mommy's and all the things they do for their children. It shows Mommy's helping their little ones be active, trying new things. Taking care of us when we are hurt. Helping us conquer or fears. Showing us we can be brave and learn to do anything. Teaching us to save money in our piggy banks. Teaching us to play by ourselves when you have other things that need to be done. By feeding us healthy foods. And the fun of bath time. Bedtime stories of magical adventures.
Lovely illustrations and a great book for families.
This is such a sweet, heartwarming book about gratitude. It is a wonderful tribute to mothers everywhere, and will open up discussions. The illustrations are beautiful and so diverse. This would be a great Mother’s Day gift, or a gift for any day of the year!
So freaking adorable! This would be the PERFECT mother's day gift! And what I loved most was all the representation and equality in this book. Beautifully done!
Thank you @netgalley for the eARC!
Thank You, Mommy is the type of children’s book every family needs!
My best friend has a two year old that loves having books read to her and looking at the pictures. I read this to her and she immediately asked me to read it again. She especially loved the colourful illustrations. There was even one that looked like her mum! The diversity in the illustrations really stood out to me. It’s wonderful that children from different backgrounds can look at the pictures and see families that look similar to theirs.
The message of Thank You, Mommy is very important too. I think it’s nice for children to know that their mums are always giving something to them, even if it’s not a physical present. And it’s not only important for children- after reading this ebook, I made a point to call my mum as well. I will be recommending this to all my friends who have kids.
Thank you so much to Netgallery for a copy of this ebook in exchange for a review.

Absolutely loved this book and getting to share it with my two toddlers.
The story was incredibly thoughtful, with lessons for kids and parents both.
the illustrations are very diverse and a fantastic edition to the book and message it sent.

Thank you to NetGalley and the Publisher for the eARC! This would be a cute Mother's Day Gift for Moms. Throughout the story children thank their Moms for all the different things they do for them, I love that each page is a different family and the families are diverse throughout the entire story.
A great teaching book for the children. . This book teaches children To be selfless and also teaches gratitude especially to mothers. They need a heartfelt thank you from kids sometimes. So every once in a while thank your parents for something. They will love you for it. The pictures are beautiful . its a must read for children.

Thanks NetGalley for the preview!
This would be a super Mother’s Day gift! An adorable love letter to acknowledge all things a mom does. The representation of different families was sweet. Each child could find themselves in the book. I loved it!
A cute appreciation book to Moms. Great illustrations and representations of women and different types of mothers. A wonderful gift for any child and their mother!
Thank you netgalley for lending this. One of the best books I've read at Netgalley. Baguuuuuss. So warm. Very inclusive of mothers who are depicted from various religions, races, cultures
An adorable children's book which highlights many things that Mothers do for their children. I loved the diversity of the Mothers in this book - from skin color and ethnicity, to (dis)abilities and family make-up. Looking forward to other books in this series as well!
