Stories for Kids and Moms for Mother’s Day

There is something wonderful about curling up and reading stories for kids and moms with your own child or grandchild! There are dozens of stories that feature kids and their moms. While they can be read all year long, I think reading one of these stories for kids and mom on Mother’s Day makes Mother’s Day extra special.
