By Jessica Mizzi • 2 years ago
Books for Moms

Abbe and Jess don’t know much (it’s sad, but true), but they do know a lot about one thing: books. Another thing they’re sure of? Moms love books. Seriously, they do.

In this episode of Six Picks, the Read It Forward gals recommend six books for moms that are captivating must-reads. Spanning fiction and nonfiction, they’ve picked out something for every kind of reader.

Show how much you appreciate your Mom this Mother’s Day—and every day—by giving her the gift of reading.
