A Hallmark gift book. Date and inscription on title page. All other pages clean and unmarked. Each page is a photograph of one or more animals, with a short continuation of a statement to Mom that runs the length of the book.

The next page concludes "...and my first rainbow." under a photo of a polar bear and her cub, looking off to the distance. It continues this way through the 73 pages, equating perhaps the world's longest Mother's Day card.
