Meet the Author:

Having battled Crohn’s Disease for most of her life and after undergoing 82 abdominal surgeries, Brandi Pearce knew she wouldn’t be able to carry children of her own. After a successful surrogacy resulted in her son, August, years later, she wondered how to explain to August that he was getting a new brother who was growing in someone else’s belly. That’s when Mommy’s Oven, Pearce’s debut children’s, book was born. Pearce wants other parents to be able to teach their own children that every family creation is unique and special. She hopes to inspire hope in overcoming adversity, as well as true miracles with this book.

My Thoughts
This is a beautifully written and gorgeouslyillustrated book about a little boy named Augie. Augie has a big extended family. Augie does not have any siblings and one day would love one. To his surprise his mommy and daddy tell him that he will have a baby sibling. Augie is thrilled that his mommy and daddy are telling him this. They explain that while he will have a new sibling, he will be grown in a different oven. I loved the way they broke the use of a surrogate down to him. He gets to meet Julia who is carrying the baby. The explanation is a perfect way to explain how sometimes babies are born different ways. I loved the storyline, the pictures and this book made us smile. I read this with my 9 and 7 year old sons. They enjoyed it also.  
I received a copy of this book through the IRead book Tours - all thoughts are my own.
