Just Like Mummy

Book Synopsis

Who wouldn’t want to be just like mummy, when she is loving and silly, creative and practical? She also knows how to have fun, and even if she messes up, it’s never a big deal. Mum can deal with any situation, turning disaster into joy, and tears into laughter. This celebration of mothers is a beautiful, funny and heart-warming story.

The follow up to Just Like Daddy from Lucy Freegard, this is funny, captivating and colourful – a delightful read.

Our Review Panel says...

Sometimes children wish to be astronauts, artists or sports stars – and sometimes they wish to be just like their mums! This is the follow up to Just Like Daddy from Lucy Freegard and captures the parent-child relationship in a heartwarming way. The story beautifully draws out Mum’s positive qualities that the cub wishes to emulate – her ability to turn bad situations into good ones, her creativity, her kindness and her sense of humour – as well as celebrating the fun activities they enjoy together.
