Synopsis

Mamma mia! Didn't think mums could make you laugh? Think again. "Mothers' Wit" is full of classic one-liners from a rich variety of red-hot mammas such as Victoria Wood, Joan Rivers, Roseanne and Marge Simpson. Covering all the joys of motherhood, these celebrated matriarchs deliver belly laughs and offer pearls of maternal wisdom on such topics as morning sickness and stretch marks, playground politics and raising hormonal teenagers, frenzied mealtimes and dreary household chores. Complemented with sharp insights from family members, "Mothers' Wit" will give every mother the one thing she really needs (apart from an uninterrupted night's sleep): a good laugh.

'The first time you leave your child at school you're faced with a tough decision - down the pub or back to bed?' - Jo Brand 'Priceless like a mother's love, or the good kind of priceless?' - Bart Simpson 'You know you really are a mother when: you use your own saliva to clean your child's face; your child throws up and you catch it.' - Erma Bombeck 'Real mothers think sex is like full-time employment - it's a nice idea but it'll never happen again in their lifetime.' - Victoria Wood
