Mothers' Day Book #1 - 《眼泪的气味 --- 学会关爱妈妈》

One day, Tong Tong noticed his mummy was tearing (she was cutting onions), and thought something had upset her. To cheer Mummy up, sweet little Tong Tong was on his best behaviour the entire day, and Mummy was really touched! 
This book comes from a series of lift-the-flap picture books that follow Tong Tong, an adorable panda, as he picks up  social skills in his day-to-day interactions with others.

Mothers' Day Book #2 - 《我的家最棒》

The three little pigs made their mummy angry and upset. After being reprimanded, the three brothers decided to leave home to become the children of other animals. Where will they go? What will happen at their new homes? Follow the three little pigs on this journey as they learn to understand and appreciate how precious their mother's love for them is.

Mothers' Day Book #3 - 《我妈妈》

This classic Anthony Browne picture book celebrates the many wonderful things that mothers do. We see how mothers juggle the many things in their lives, how they can be strong and soft, as well as comfortable and beautiful. Anthony Browne brilliantly paints the heroine in our lives with humor and affection, and the ultimate message that shines forth is: "I love my mom. And you know what? SHE LOVES ME! (And she always will.)"

Mothers' Day Book #4 - 《朱家故事》

Mrs Piggott does everything for her husband and sons. She cooks and cleans and has a job as well. She is completely taken for granted. One day, the Piggott men come home to an empty house. Mrs Piggott has had enough. As they struggle to cope without Mrs Piggot, their home turns into a huge mess. They begged Mrs Piggott to  return, but Mrs Piggott lays out some conditions. The boys have to make their beds. Dad learns to iron. They cook together. Now, Mrs Piggot finally has time for her chores - she mends the car! The book is filled with comic illustrations and humor, as the author (Anthony Browne again!) explores gender stereotypes. This is definitely THE book that will make us reflect on what our mums have done for us, and how we can better appreciate them!
