博客來Everyone in Annie’s class is buzzing about the big Mother’s Day card contest. The winner gets ＄25, and her friends are already dreaming about what they’ll buy. But Annie keeps quiet because in her family, Mother’s Day cards aren’t a thing.
Still, Annie loves her mom deeply. She loves how she smells like dandelion tea and oatmeal cookies, the silly voices she uses at story time, and how she believes the best gifts are the ones given ＂just because.＂
As the contest deadline nears, Annie is torn between following her heart and following the rules. Can she still find a way to show her love and maybe even enter the contest?
With heart, humor, and a whole lot of courage, Annie discovers that love isn’t about the prize, it’s about the why.
This tender story is the fourth in the Annie the Porcupine series, charming tales that celebrate inclusion, what family truly means, and the everyday ways we say ＂I love you.＂
