Everybody’s mum is unique, and everybody’s mum is special, and what better way to recognise that than through this beautifully written and illustrated book? The book only even begins to describe the diverse different types of mums in the world. I’m sure we will all find one we can relate to!

I love how it considers appearances, hobbies, jobs, personalities and that special bond between mother and child. The end rhyming structure of the text and Philip’s subtle sense of humour make this a delightful read-aloud book. I can imagine this sparking many conversations between children about their mums and mother figures, spreading the message of how special mums are to us.

The bright and colourful illustrations by Dawn Lo support the upbeat and celebratory feel perfectly. A wonderfully inclusive book that celebrates all types of mums everywhere!
