Nice inspirational collection/gift. Mom Candy (great name) is a collection of quotes of inspiration for mothers. The books is definitely presentation quality and a good gift idea for moms of all kinds, experienced to expecting! The quotes are divided into 19 sections suh as Heart, Time, Balance, Strength and more. There is also a section called “Speaker List” at the end which is a comprehensive list of the people who are quoted in the book. The variety includes Maya Angelou to Johnny Depp! Brook Shields, Erma Bombeck, Vincent van Gough, and a host of proverbs. There are two marker ribbons which to me just adds to the presentation quality. Appealing visual format and very nice content. All-in-all well done!
