Reviews:

Picture books provide an engaging medium to teach lessons on values to young readers. In addition, using animals as main characters to craft and develop these lessons creates interesting, interactive, and memorable fables. In Mother’s Love Can Conquer Any Fear!, Author Subhash Kommuru and illustrator Sujata Kommuru have combined animals, storytelling, and expressive illustrations to successfully share the core values of family, community, and courage with young readers. Additionally, this fable demonstrates to children that though the village was afraid of Kaalia’s wrath, that fear was conquered by the strength of a mother’s love, which is a powerful and comforting message. These important lessons, accompanied by vivid illustrations of adorable chickens, make Mother’s Love Can Conquer Any Fear! a delightful fable to share with readers of all ages. -The Children’s Book Review (www.thechildrensbookreview.com)
