Mother-Child Relationship Book Discussion (May '23)
A mother or mother figure is so very important in a child's life, whether young or grown. Without moms, none of us would be here, and there is something about just needing your mom when you're not feeling the greatest, or when you want to share exciting news. Let's celebrate all kinds of moms and mother figures out there this month by reading books that focus on that special relationship between a child and a mother.
Here are some guiding questions to generate discussion:
- What book did you read?
- Who was the primary relationship between? (mom-daughter, mom-son, etc.)
- Were there other genres woven into the text? If so, which one(s)?
- Share what the book was about.
- Provide a rating and target audience.

I'm also excited about what everyone has read about Mother-Child Relationship books. There are a lot of books I want to read about the Mother-daughter relationship and I was thinking to read in next week:)

I already read one! I read the book Where'd You Go, Bernadette by Maria Semple and I gave it 5 stars! The relationship is between mother and daughter. There are also other genres like mystery, humor, family, etc. The book was about Ms.fox daughter Bernadette or Bee for short wants a trip to Antarctica as a reward for perfect grades. But Bee disappears and that's when the plot started. I gave it 5 stars and the target audience are young adults and adults. The plot was interesting and I enjoyed reading it:)Heidi M Simone wrote: ↑01 May 2023, 21:16 We will be reading books focusing on Mother-Daughter/Son Relationships to celebrate Mother's Day this month!

This sounds like a very interesting story, and I'm glad that you enjoyed it! Wow, I like when books start off with a mystery (Bee's disappearance). If it's done right, then the story ends up throwing me in several different loops, which makes the book very exciting.Rosesbookpicks wrote: ↑24 May 2023, 06:27I already read one!
