Biographical note

<p>" What's most striking about the book . . . is its use of intense neon colors both for details and large swaths of the illustrations and for the text itself."—<em>Kirkus Reviews</em></p>
This crisp and contemporary picture book offers a unique baby's eye view of the first year, from birth to first steps.
A mother is a nest, a vehicle, a mirror... The baby sees their mother in every aspect of their day. As the pages go by, the child grows. The mother who was a refuge becomes a road, a story and a show. On the final page, the child is ready to take their first steps. Because a mother is a home that you carry inside you forever.
A Mother Is a House looks through the baby's eyes for an unexpected and affecting picture of parents and home-shown through bright, contemporary illustrations and special inks.
