Forever Mum (English-Chinese Edition): A Little Book of Quotations & Animal Photos on the Joys and Hardships of Motherhood

What is this book?

I Love You, Mom is a bilingual Chinese-English gift book that pairs one animal photograph with one short, honest reflection on motherhood. The quotes were selected by author Anne Howard from personal reflections sent in by readers around the world — real words from real people about what it means to have a mother and to be one-36. Every spread features a different animal photo — polar bears, elephants, monkeys — making each page both playful and quietly moving-23.

What problem does it solve for you?

A lot of people want to tell their mother how they feel but can't find the right words. This book says it for you. You don't need to craft the perfect message — open to any page and that page becomes what you wanted to say. The book even leaves blank space for you to write your own thoughts, or to try your own translation next to the English text-14.

• People living or studying away from home who want a little warmth on the shelf.

• Chinese learners or English learners. Short sentences, side-by-side bilingual text, easy to read-36.

• Anyone who loves animal photography. Every page is a different animal face.
