I Love My Mummy

Product Information

In comparison most pages in this are not endearing -mummy wipes a grubby nose, helps them "do a wee" and tells the little kid to not "scream and shout" when they go out. She gives lots of kisses, she bakes yummy cakes and she reads her an extra book at bedtime - what's not to love?

We also have daddy is my hero, where dad is painted as this magical person who can do the impossible . It’s a first person toddler narrator, and the sentence structure and word choice don’t fit the voice.After studying fine arts in Valencia, she went on to complete a teaching masters degree, before living in London whilst working as a graphic designer for advertising agencies.
