Description

Reviews

NZ Booklovers ~ This delightful picture book asks the question, ‘What makes mums so special?’ And it turns out that there are many, everyday things that make mothers special, and I’m sure families will respond well to the story and charming illustrations that depict a variety of family situations that are relatable and gently humorous. One of my favourite spreads is ‘My mum is the best mum in the world because…she lets me do her hair.’ The expression on the mother’s face as two of her children pull and prod her hair is priceless! Another favourite spread is ‘My mum is the best mum in the world because…she really loves my cooking.’ Mum is graciously accepting a plate of leaves, flowers, stones and a peg. Oh, and it even has a snail to complete this ‘delicious’ offering.
