Description

A tender picture book about a veterans PTSD and a familys love for each otheron good days and hard daysfrom award-winning creators Winsome Bingham and Rahele Jomepour Bell

Momma wears combat boots, a camouflage jacket, and a U.S. ARMY tag on her chest. She is a fighter for her countrys freedom, but she is also a fighter for her family. When Momma comes home from a long deployment, however, something has changed. Our narrator, Mommas Baby, misses the big hugs, uniform fashion shows, and music mornings they used to share. And she really misses planting vegetables together. Now her Momma wont even come out to the garden. But maybe, just maybe, she can bring the garden to Momma.

Missing Momma is the poignant and ultimately hopeful, comforting story of a child with a parent affected by PTSD. Sensitively written by Winsome Bingham and movingly illustrated by Rahele Jomepour Bell, Missing Momma beautifully reminds kids that a familys love endures even on days that arent picture perfect.
