Under Your Wing: Why I'm Glad You're My Mum!

 Photographer Bob Elsdale and author Patrick Regan team up to offer more than 40 reasons to pay tribute to motherhood: From her role of nurturer, teacher, and cheerleader to stepping back and watching her efforts take flight, these photographic spreads of feathery fledgling chicks are perfectly paired with heartfelt verse:

• Whenever I lost my way and my feathers were ruffled, you were there to smooth them.
• With every loving act and patient lesson, you prepared me for my life ahead.
• I know I've still got a lot to learn about life, but I do know one thing for sure ...I'm a lucky duck to have a mum like you.
