About the Book

In Mama, Who Am I? a young child asks her mother about her place in the world. Through rhythmic prose, her mother explains that she is beyond what she might believe she is. The child slowly comes to understand that she is beyond even the question itself. The verses invite the young reader to consider a connection to a greater universe beyond imagination.

This children’s verse offers a poetic exploration for young children and for the young children within all of us who yearn to know their true identity.

Then, who am I, Mama?

You are the seer of your question.
You are the watcher as you ask it.
You are the endless space around it.
