On Mother's Lap

Brief Description: A small Eskimo boy discovers that Mother's lap is a very special place with room for everyone. Review Quotes: "An update of the 1972 collaboration. Coalson improves upon a fine original work . . . this one is a top choice."Review Quotes: "Sitting on his mother's lap, a young Eskimo boy cheerfully gathers his belongings until he, some toys, his puppy, and a blanket are all crowded together in the rocking chair. When his baby sister cries, the boy claims there is no room for her, but Mother proves him wrong, and the threesome settle comfortably in the chair. Soft illustrations depict a cozy scene and a loving family." -- Copyright (c) 1992 The Horn Book, Inc. All rights reserved.
