Summary: My Mother is the Most Beautiful Woman in the World
Review: A wonderful children's book that tells the story of a young boy lost from his mother. Throughout the book he searches and the eyes of everyone but him see beauty in a different way. The eyes of love, however, see true beauty. I read this book to my daughter when she was small and I am now looking forward to reading it to my granddaughter!

Summary: A charming lesson on "looking through the eyes of love."
Review: This is a charming story of a child lost and reunited with her peasant parents. When I was a children's librarian I used to read this to my first graders who all thought that their own mothers were beautiful. Now that I teach in high school I use it as an comparison for a Japanese story by Kawabata. It is the perfect explanation of "looking through the eyes of love."
