Media Reviews
Each spread is a perfectly conceived whole, each picture demanding endless scrutiny...original, unexpected, funny and typically Browne. * The Guardian *
It is full of caprice and oddity and wit. * The Observer *
The pictures are a delight, an easy fusion of the ordinary with the surreal, painted with clear-eyed detail. Very witty, very true. Small children will love Mum, and so will parents. * The Independent *
The illustrations are breathtaking and inspiring. Makes you glad to be a mum. * Angels & Urchins *
'A joy of a book, a celebration of mums everywhere.' * Carousel *
