Books For Mom 2013

Mother’s Day is Sunday, May 12th, which gives us all a chance to recognize the woman who made sure we did our homework, that we brushed our teeth and who handed out advice that we opted to sometimes listen to --- and probably should have a lot more than we did. These are just some of the reasons we celebrate moms with their own special day.

We know it's not always easy to pick out the perfect present for your mom, but we do know books make perfect gifts! So we have pulled together a list of recent favorites that are sure to make moms smile.

A special addition this year is a "New Mother" selection of 5 titles found on the bottom row of the bookshelf. These 5 books make excellent gifts for expecting and new mothers!

Also, from now through May 6th at noon ET, readers will have the chance to win one of five Bookreporter.com Mother’s Day tote bags. Each bag is filled with a selection of nine varied and wonderful books, along with a variety of gifts to treat Mom: Godiva dark chocolate truffles, a bath sponge shaped like a flower, and an eye masque that can either be chilled or heated.
