The book, illustrated by Jessica Courtney-Tickle, features mothers comforting their children and putting them to sleep at bedtime
“In Rome, in Warsaw, in Calcutta, in Paris and New York, each mother is singing a lullaby as old, as old as the world. Sleep, my baby, my lovely baby. I wish you good night,” the text says.
Mr. Shore noted that his mother wrote the lullaby for him when he was born in 1956. Ms. Allen-Shore was born in Poland, survived the Holocaust and immigrated to Canada in 1951. She died in 2018 at 97. When Russia invaded Ukraine in February, 2022, Mr. Shore said he thought of September, 1939, when his mother was 17 years old and the Second World War started. And he thought of efforts to help Ukrainians.
