If Mom Had Three Arms By Karen Kaufman Orloff
Suitable for ages 3 ~ 7
"I only have two arms!" Every mother has said it sometime, and every kid has heard it. But a young boy wonders: what would happen if Mom really had "more . . . many more?"
If Mommy had many arms, what could she do? Just imagine! She'd be Supermom, with three arms juggling, or four-armed Mom at a crosswalk, making cars stop and go. And why raise just one hand in class when you can raise . . . FIVE? As kids count along right up to 20 they'll come up with some great ideas of their own. But best of all, they will remember that Mom only needs her two real arms for hugging.

The moving text, supported by soft watercolor illustrations, reassures Max and Julian that although Mama loves them differently, she loves them both very much.
