Baby Kipling, a penguin, misses his mama when she goes on a trip.

Three owl babies whose mother has gone out in the night try to stay calm while she is gone.

A gentle tale told entirely through sticky notes between a mother and daughter as the girl's departure for her first summer camp draws near demonstrates how love can be found even in scribbled messages and other unlikely places.

After listening to their respective mothers tell them separately about the dangers lurking in the woods, a little boy and a wolf cub get lost in the forest, where they meet, become friends, and play together until they are found by their worried mothers.

Unlike the other Birthmothers in her utopian community, teenaged Claire forms an attachment to her baby, feeling a great loss when he is taken from their community.
