I love having books that I can share with my granddaughter that will remind her of God's great love for her. When I had the opportunity to read Mama, Sing My Song I accepted and they sent me the book for this review.

Summary:

Mama, Sing My Song is a beautiful children's book about God's big love, giving families affirming words to shower on their kids, revealing the bright joy, deep care, and unending love they have in their hearts. Amanda Seibert, founder of Mama Sing My Song, the popular company that creates personalized songs for parents to gift to their children, knows that the words we speak over our little ones can shape them for years to come.

When we look at our children, we see those one-in-a-million grins, their crinkled noses, and sweet eyes looking back at us, which soften our hearts. God designed those babies uniquely, and Mama, Sing My Song is a celebration of all that is lovely and true about your child. Let your little ones know they are safe, loved, and cherished in your family.

My Review:

Want a story that will make you tear up every time you read it? Mama, Sing My Song is it! I know, you're probably thinking, "Why would I want to nearly cry while reading a children's story?" Because this one is incredibly sweet and tender! And if that's not enough, there's a QR code inside that will allow you to download the actual song!

The story is wonderfully illustrated. The different animals each looks soft and cuddly. The places where each animal lives is reflected in every page spread. Shout out to the fox page with the monarch caterpillar and butterflies!

Mama, Sing My Song reinforces not only the love of a parent, but the even greater love of God. Each page reminds the child that they are wonderfully made and treasured by God. I appreciate that this story isn't just about a parents love, but more about God's is a "million times more"!

What's neat about this book is that it can become a memento for the child because at the front and back are places for the parent to write answers to the prompts! When they're older they can be reminded of the special parts of who they are.

I can't wait to share this story with my little lovey when she's a little bit older.
