A Mother Is a Story: A Celebration of Motherhood

By Samantha Hahn

Capturing Brooklyn-based artist Samantha Hahn's modern sensibility, A Mother Is a Story: A Celebration of Motherhood is a stunning collection of hand-lettered quotes and ethereal illustrations. Rendered in Hahn's signature watercolors, the book portrays the shared experience of motherhood in all its glorious, messy, sublime beauty. With quotes that range from witty and irreverent to touching and thoughtful, each page presents sentiments and snippets of wisdom that celebrate the spirit of motherhood. Contributions come from literary icons, political activists, lifestyle bloggers, fashion designers, and more. A Mother Is a Story is published in conjunction with Stories for My Child: A Mother's Memory Journal , a guided journal for capturing all the moments of motherhood, small and spectacular, from pregnancy through your child's adolescence. Together or separately, they make the perfect gift for Mother's Day and baby showers.
