A little girl stays home with Mama when Mummy goes off on a work
trip in this tender, inviting story that will resonate with every
child who has missed a parent. For one little girl, there’s no
place she’d rather be than sitting between Mama and Mummy. So
when Mummy goes away on a work trip, it’s tricky to find a good
place at the table. As the days go by, Mama brings her to the
library, they watch films, and all of them talk on the phone, but
she still misses Mummy as deep as the ocean and as high as an
astronaut up in the stars. As they pass by a beautiful garden, the
girl has an idea ... but when Mummy finally comes home, it takes a
minute to shake off the empty feeling she felt all week before
leaning in for a kiss. Michael L. Printz Award winner Nina LaCour
thoughtfully renders a familiar, touching story of a child who
misses a parent, illustrated by Kaylani Juanita, whose distinctive
style brings charm and playfulness to this delightful family of
three.

own beloved skin. If Walt Whitman were reborn as a young woman of
