Action Man, please move over
You’re nothing but a plastic poser
If there’s a job that you need done
The one you want is Action Mum
Be entranced by Circus Mum, find out what it’s like to have a Celebrity Mum, play the beautiful game with Football Mum, admire Hard-working Mum, School-Run-Mum and Stunt Mum, and discover what it’s like to have Two Mums.
A funny, heart-warming and thoughtful sequel to The Dictionary of Dads , by a brilliant poet, who performs in schools and theatres across the UK.
A highly recommendable poetry collection in which every poem represents a different mum. There’s Bake-Off Mum, School-Run Mum, Keep- Fit Mum, Stunt Mother and Under-Cover Spy Mother – but the collection also celebrates mums who are often underrepresented in books too, seen in the poems Adoptive Mum, Dad-Mum, Windrush Mum, Young Mum and Two Mums. You’ll recognise plenty of the mums in this witty, wise and heart-warming collection, which is perfect for children in KS2.
