by ElmaVanVliet (Author)

Synopsis

On realising that her mother was seriously ill, Elma van Vliet sat down and wrote The Mother's Book, a collection of questions that would allow her to find out who her mother really was. She wanted to learn what she had been like as a girl, her childhood memories, what her dreams had been at 18, who she had fallen in love with first, how she had felt about the birth of her child . Based on an old Dutch tradition of personalised memoirs, this book is one that every girl should give to her mother - a gift to be shared for life. With illustrations, poems and stories to inspire you, this book asks all the questions you need to discover your mother's real story - all those questions that you will regret not having asked. Don't let the opportunity pass to find out the story that matters most.
