Is your mama a llama? “Is your mama a llama?” I asked my friend Dave. “No, she is not,” is the answer Dave gave. “She hangs by her feet, and she lives in a cave. I do not believe that’s how llamas behave.” “Oh,” I said. “You are right about that. I think that your mama sounds more like a... Bat!” “Is your mama a llama?” I asked my friend Fred. “No, she is not,” is what Freddy said. “She has a long neck and white feathers and wings. I don’t think a llama has all of those things.” “Oh,” I said. “You don’t need to go on. I think that your mama must be a... Swan!” “Is your mama a llama?” I asked my friend Jane. “No, she is not,” Jane politely explained. “She grazes on grass, and she likes to say, ‘Moo!’ I don’t think that is what a llama would do.” “Oh,” I said. “I understand, now. I think that your mama must be a... Cow!” “Is your mama a llama?” I asked my friend Clyde. “No, she is not,” is how Clyde replied. “She’s got flippers and whiskers and eats fish all day... I do not think llamas act quite in that way.” “Oh,” I said. “I’m beginning to feel that your mama must really be a... Seal!” “Is your mama a llama?” I asked my friend Rhonda. “No, she is not,” is how Rhonda responded. “She’s got big hind legs and a pocket for me... So I don’t think a llama is what she could be.” “Oh,” I said. “That is certainly true. I think that your mama’s a... Kangaroo!” “Is your mama a llama?” I asked my friend Llyn. “Oh, Lloyd, don’t be silly!” Llyn said with a grin. “My mama has big ears, long lashes, and fur... And you, of all people, should know about her! Our mamas belong to the same herd, and you know all about llamas, ’cause you are one, too!” “Yes, you are right,” I said to my friend. “My mama’s a... Llama!” And this is... THE END

Is Your Mama A Llama?

By: Deborah Guarino

Summary:

Lloyd the baby llama asks different animals if their Mama is a llama. He asks duck, cow, and seal. They give him hints of what their mom looks like. The hints help him see that their mom is not his mom. In the end he does find his mama llama.


Reader Enjoyment Factors:

This is an easy, fun book to share. It is an entertaining way to teach kids about animals. It is a loving story, with fun rhymes and illustrations. It also exposes kids to new animals.

Content Awareness Factors:

None.


Little Kid Reaction

Family 1: My daughter liked that the llama talked to all the different animals. She said they were cute, and she liked how each animal described what their mother looked like. She especially liked when he found his mother.

Parent Reaction

Family 1: I was surprised she liked it but was glad when she smiled and was happy when he finally finds his mother. I enjoyed that the llama asking the questions helped my daughter learn about other animals without realizing it.

Little Kid Reaction

Family 2: My sons enjoyed trying to guess what the animal’s mother was. My 3-year old is very into animals, so this was a natural book for him to love. This was probably his favorite one in the stack.

Parent Reaction

Family 2: Yes, I loved this book. The rhyming is fun, and is a great way to introduce the FUN and PLEASURE of reading to small children. I love that some of the animals are not “standard” first children’s book animals (cat, dog, horse, cow, chicken), so my children were exposed to some new (but not too obscure) animals. And I SOOO appreciate that they showed a very loving relationship between mother and young, which reinforces my own relationship with my children – a very safe and loving book to read to tender-hearted little people! I could tell from the colorful illustrations and fun words that my sons would love it. I was a little surprised (delightfully!) that my sons loved it SOOO much and wanted to read it again and again, and I was surprised at how much my older son (age 5) was into it – it was a small board book, and not very long, but I found he LOVED the excitement of figuring out what the animal was before I turned the page and revealed the word.

Type of Book:
This is a rhyming picture book for toddlers through kindergartners.

Educational Themes:

This is a book for introducing animals, and it lets you show how babies don't always look like their parent. (i.e. cygnets have different coloring than swans)

Reading Level:
0.7

Recommended Age To Read By Yourself:
5 to 7

Recommended Age To Read Together:
1 to 4

Age of child:
Read with a 5-year-old girl (family 1). Also read with two boys, ages 3 and 5 (family 2).

Purchase Recommendation:
Buy. This is a fun book to share, and libraries should definitely have this book. Family 2 adds: It is a wonderful book that I would recommend as a first book for young toddlers or even babies.

    Every life has a beginning and an end. Something inanimate has a beginning and an end either way. In what form and when this end comes is another matter. Of course, you can take a ray that has a beginning, but no end, but this is only in mathematics, as far as I know. In reality, this beam will subsequently simply disintegrate or dissipate in space. I'm sorry, bad philas of me. nine0093

    You can now joke dofiga with a biased Internet joke. Well, you know where Homer opens the refrigerator. But no, I wouldn’t draw anything, because there is emptiness in the head of some familiar people, but I don’t want to draw them. And I'm generally lazy. Everybody.

    When you become fucking rich by opening a factory for the production of "Funny felt-tip pens", and invest in the very creation of such games.

    I turn on the audiobook and sit down to do dz according to DPI or HOM. If there is absolutely nothing to do, then I saddle my iron pony and, pedaling, ride around my native neighborhood.

    And I keep clear days for myself
    And I return gloomy days to fate.

    Yes, I live in Chekhov (I don't sleep in Chicago City). To Moscow? Nuss .. Perhaps, or even most likely, in the future I will move there or to St. Petersburg.
    I go there sometimes, but since I'm a stupid cretin by nature, it's difficult for me to navigate there. Therefore, if I go, I'm not alone.
