Opis

Mamma's Brown Sugar is a colorful and captivating story about a single woman who wishes to have a family and thus adopts a son who she lovingly calls, Mamma's Brown Sugar. This book is appropriate for all age groups and provides hope to all adopted children and children wanting to be adopted. It also supports families and friends of single parents who are exploring adoption. The story offers children the ability to recognize that to be adopted means that one is chosen, and counters the cruel imagery of being orphaned and unwanted. The story presents illustrations of beauty such as shades of brown skin, broad noses, and nappy hair to offset stereotypes often present in the 21st Century. The illustrations display the beautiful bond created between a mother and son to support the social, cognitive, and emotional development needed by children. Finally, the story reflects the current trend of declining marriages in the United States while offering hope to professional women who wish to have the fulfillment of both families and careers.
