Mothers and Children is a collection of National Geographic photographs that capture the universal bond between mother and child. The rich, story-centric photographs, from past and present, take readers into the lives of families from around the world. An introductory essay will set the stage and in-depth captions illuminate the story behind each image. The collection includes nearly 100 images representing all aspects of the subject — whimsical, poignant, humorous, touching and sincere. Photographers represented include contributors and National Geographic photographers Jodi Cobb, Annie Briffiths Belt, Sam Abell, William Albert Allard, Joel Sartore, and more. An introduction from mother and writer Lynne Perri will set the stage for the visual journey through the hearts and homes of mothers everywhere, followed by lyrical essays about work, play, and life at home which will accompany the photos.
