Do you remember going to school on the first day and starting a new grade? It was filled with all that excitement to meet your friends after a long vacation, a bit of nervousness, a little thrill, and the feeling of getting older even though it was just by a year! I used to have all of these mixed emotions on the first day of school, as did little Alex, the young protagonist of the book “Seeing Mommy All Day Long” by Vincent A. Pendarvis.

The book begins on a colorful note, and I use the word colorful because every page of this book is of a different color. The story starts off with Alex’s mommy waking him up to get ready for school. Alex is going to start at a new school, so a little nervousness is natural and evident. His mommy works at a nearby hospital and is sad that she can’t be with him all day long. However, mommies being mommies, Alex’s mom has arranged something that would make Alex feel as if he were seeing his mommy all day long. What has Alex’s mom done? Does this arrangement make Alex happy? What happens at the new school? This book has all the answers.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book from start to end, and the illustrations by Hatice Bayramoglu are multiple cherries on a cake. Children would love reading this book, as it not only entertains but also teaches the importance of good manners, listening to elders, taking care of younger siblings, helping at home, and staying bonded with friends and neighbors.

There are a lot of parts I liked in the book, like the one where Alex is with his friends Alvin and Reggie at the gym, the one where he visits Mrs. Baxter’s store, or even the one where he has a wonderful feast with his brother and sister at his friend Alvin’s house. The overall concept and vibe of the book resonated with me, and I would love to read more such books in the future. Considering all of my likes—the beautiful illustrations, the flawless editing, and the overall appeal of the book—I would rate it 5 out of 5 stars. There is nothing at all to dislike about this book.

This book is a sure recommendation from my side to all children between the ages of three and eleven. Even parents can sit and read along with their children for a more inclusive and entertaining experience.
