“Mama’s Heart Fits Two” by Denise Carkhuff is a children’s non-fiction, autobiographical, picture-story book that deals with unique sharing issues found only in twins. Twins who share their parents from birth often end up feeling insecure and over-sensitive. Eva and Gia, fraternal twins named after their real-life namesakes, Denise Carkhuff’s own twin daughters, constantly fight over their mother, vying with each other to get their mother’s instant attention. To their great delight and joy, Eva and Gia finally know that they are both number one in Mom’s heart. As a mother’s love is selfless, never-ending and unconditional, Mama’s heart indeed fits two, as Eva and Gia learn to their utmost happiness and satisfaction.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.

Although this book is aimed at twins, I feel like it can be a great read for any family that is growing. Especially when it's going from an only child to two or more. It had adorable illustrations and I feel like it gave validation to the feelings of children. I think a lot of them do fear being second in mommy's heart and this book makes sure it's clear that it's not going to happen.
