LITERATURE

Motherbridge of Love

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Josée Masse. In heartfelt, if sometimes awkward verse, an adoptive mother tells her Chinese-born daughter about her unknown birth mother, comparing the roles both mothers play in the child's life and delivering a positive message about their "two different kinds of love." While occasionally sentimental, the illustrations feature some attractive mother-daughter images, several with the birth mother's benign face hidden in the landscape.
