My Mother's Voice


My Mother's Voice by Joanne Ryder seems like a book many people could relate to. The story discusses simple things the little girl loves about her mom. She loves hearing her voice in the different settings of her life, from her cheerful voice in the morning, to her thoughtful voice when she consoles her, or her singing voice when they are in the kitchen baking. I think this book is so easy to relate to because any child could think about someone they are very close to whether its their mom, aunt, grandma, or close friend. I feel like life goes by very quickly. Many times I have taken for granted everything my mom has provided for me. And being away from my mom at college, I have definitely started to appreciate and take time to thank her for guiding, supporting, caring, and loving me. This is the perfect book to slow down life with, and remember how much we love the ones who have raised us.
