THE MOM EGG

Mother Tongue is here!  A mother murmurs to her infant son. Mother’s words hold power to hurt or heal. A new immigrant struggles to learn English; later generations, to cling to remnants of language and culture. Mother Tongue speaks out. Mother Tongue has been silenced—and freed. Mother Tongue names. Mother Tongue tastes and plays. A must-read for mothers and lovers of language, and a fabulous gift for every literate, creative Mom.
