Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
The Day My Mommy Slept In!
Kally Mayer · 2015
63/100
👎 Skip It
Warm, harmless, and bouncy — this rhyming picture book does its job as a read-aloud giggle without any objectionable content. It is genuinely cheerful and age-appropriate. But the premise is thin, the narrative arc is minimal, and the critical record is essentially just Amazon reader comments. A nice gift for the right toddler, not a title that stands out in a crowded picture-book field.
