Mom's Dresses

Awarded at the 2016 Moonbeam Children's Book Awards. Each of Mom’s dresses is unique and inspires me to go on a million adventures. My Mom’s dresses are a mirror of her emotions and invite us to our imagination free.

Isn't it quite an adventure to see the world through Mom's dresses? Can you imagine being a princess in her black and white dress, riding a horse and rescuing a pawn? Traveling from “B flat” to “G” on her stripy dress? Sometimes Mom wears a long white dress and then I pick up my brushes, filling it with color. Today, Mom woke up with hearts on her nightgown. I can feel a tingling, and I can’t stop blushing!

Mónica Carretero's stories and illustrations inspire humor and tenderness, of joy and color, of hope. A book full of secrets that children will love to discover.

Mom’s Dresses is a celebration of the love between mother and daughter.
