we're never truly apart,
because you're always on my mind
and you're always in my heart.
(In My Heart)

Four board books center around the tender yet strong love that a parent surrounds their child with as they take on the world. In the book In My Heart, when a mother leaves for work each day, she tells her child they're always on her mind and in her heart. Home begins as a parent's arms but follows a child wherever they go because home is where the heart is in You Are Home. From a captain of adventures to a quiet supporter, a mama can be many things in She Is Mama. Young girls can be anything they want to be in Let Her Be.

This lovely board book boxed set includes:
