"Polo's Mother" by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor tells the story of Polo, a young boy whose mother goes away for an extended period. As Polo navigates the challenges of her absence, he learns about responsibility, longing, and the bonds of family. He faces his worries and experiences significant growth while trying to make sense of his emotions. Through interactions with friends and family, Polo discovers the importance of connection and resilience. Ultimately, the story highlights the journey of self-discovery and the enduring love of a mother, even when she is physically distant. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
