But in The Baby Who Wouldn't Say, "Mama," meet an infant who is so stubborn that it will say all sorts of common words to get what it wants, except for "Mama." The baby asks for snacks and hugs and toys. The baby calls out the names of animals and asks for a push on a swing, a ride in a wagon, and more. But the baby refuses to utter the one word Mama wants to hear! Then something changes the baby's mind: the sky darkens and a storm rolls in. Only Mama can respond to the baby's fears, as the child finally says the most important word in the human language for getting comfort and love: "Mama!" First-time author Maggi Miller says, "I'm fascinated with how children acquire language, and how terrifically clever they all are as they learn new words. One of our daughters would not call her father, "Dad" but called him by his name instead. The author is an educator and lives with her family in Austin, Texas, where she is writing her next children's book.
