Moms Need Recess, Too! When you're a child, recess or summer camp are part of your life-it's the essential time to let your imagination run free and recharge your batteries. But what about moms? They have to try their hardest all day, every day...when do they get to play? Mommy Camp is the charming story of a mother explaining to her kids how she takes care of herself, so she can take even better care of them. A lovely story for any parent to share with children, Mommy Camp helps to build compassion and empathy in families, with its warm and gentle message that caregivers need care, too.
