Why read it?
1 author picked Wild Moms as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I read this book when I was a new mom myself, and I was fascinated to learn how much I had in common with animal parents all over the world. In the process of birthing, feeding, protecting, cleaning, and teaching our offspring, we all face similar challenges and tradeoffs and reap remarkable rewards.

From Danna's list on babies and parenthood throughout the animal kingdom.
