Critics Review
A wonderful prompt for discussions around blended families, remarriage and celebrations, Mama’s Wedding is a superb addition to any primary bookshelf. - Books for Topics
“Working in gouache, colored pencil, and pastel, Yuen has crafted softly expressive illustrations that empathically enhance the thoughtful words on the page—Ruby’s resonating concern for Daddy Daniel, Granny’s quiet support, Ruby’s flower-making memories with Alex, the clear sororal bond between Ruby and Cindy, the photos and pictures that capture the past and hint at wonderful new beginnings. All characters appear to be of East Asian ethnicity; a single wedding guest is cued white. An affecting, gentle celebration of new marriage, a not unfamiliar, life-changing event for many young children.” - Kirkus Reviews
