(My Mom)), during the planning meeting deciding whether to publish it. On the sky blue cover, there was a round-faced young girl with curiosity all over her face, and its smooth feeling brought me back to the desk as I returned from work. I soon fell into the story. The book’s first page shows a mother and “I” lying silent on a bed and starts with a sentence that says, “A mom was born as I was born.” The beginning of the book leads readers on an adventure observing a mother from a young girl’s point of view.Many picture books under the theme of mother, such as Anthony Browne’s My Mum, a Chinese classic children’s...
