What a beautiful book! If you enjoyed "Someday" by Alison Meghee November 22, 2014By Anna McCarthyFormat:PaperbackWhat a beautiful book! If you enjoyed "Someday" by Alison Meghee, you will love "My Dearest One." The author, Monisha Vasa, has written such a seemingly simple message which is at the same time so beautiful and powerful. She has been able to name, with sweet poetry, the feelings that loving mothers of the world share with their children - feelings of hope, gratitude, caring, joy, devotion, attachment, and endless love. This book is a great way to tell a special little person how adored and appreciated they are. It is a book to be passed from generation to generation and to be read for many years to come.5.0 out of 5 stars

This is a very beautifully written and illustrated book. It depicts the love and the bond between parent and child and illustrates very well that though we may not always be together in body, we always are in our hearts. This is a great book to get children talking about their feelings and how to show love, care, and gratitude to one another.

Another book for children that is told in rhyme With a message clear and sublime Told through the conversation of elephants who Dream of just what they love and can do

The illustrations are superb, attractive and sweet The rhymes have a message that’s really neat That the Mum and child have a love that’s dear That will last for evermore, not just this year

The world is out there for the child to see Their dreams and what they might be But love is the thing that we can share And how we can show that we care

I really enjoyed this delightful book And recommend you go take a look Then with your children please share To show your love and that you care

Parents can use this as a starting point to teaching their children mindfulness. This is obviously meant for very young children probably around the toddler age. What a delightful gift to foster caring and mindfulness from such a young age!
