Age: Infant-Preschool
Animals: Penguins
Family: Mom and Son, temporary separation

Kipling waves to his suitcase-holding mother as she departs on a floating iceberg and calls out "I'll be back home soon!" But she's not back soon and Kipling's left with a Pillow Mama who can't read, a Picture Mama who can't laugh, and a Snow Mama who was too cold to cuddle. Then a doorbell rings and Kipling finds comfort in a package from Mama and finds purpose in sending her a package of his own. At last, Mama returns for a great big hug.

We need more books like this! Love the sweet coping mechanism that this book models for all parents that find themselves pulled away from their children for a work trip or a personal vacation.
