J''ai crié son nom... Je me suis installé sur un banc... J''étais impressionné... J''étais vraiment vraiment heureuse...

"íSí que es linda, LINDA, MUY LINDA, mi mamá!". Las palabras de este hermoso libro van acompañadas de ilustraciones y de un juego tipográfico que les imprime mayor emotividad. En escenarios diferentes, el autor nos habla de distintos tipos de mamás: estrellas de cine, astronautas, cocineras, malabaristas, pintoras, bailarinas; madres que pueden ser suaves o enérgicas, que pueden cantar como un ángel o rugir como un león; jardineras mágicas porque son capaces de hacer que cualquier cosa crezca y hadas buenas por hacer feliz a quien esté triste. Al final de ese recorrido, el autor resume: "Yo quiero a mi mamá y, saben qué?"; la respuesta tarda una página en aparecer y repentinamente, junto a la imagen de un gran abrazo entre una madre y su pequeño, podemos leer en letras mayúsculas: "íELLA ME QUIERE A MÍ!" y luego otra afirmación hecha con absoluta certeza: "y siempre me querrá".
