Average rating
She says ’I’ve worked so hard for years and I deserve a rest!’
As she scribbles with crayons and pours custard down her dress,
She’s dangling from the banister with her head upside-down!
Does your Mum do this?
Help! My Mum’s growing DOWN!
Mum is a gamer, a party animal and a free spirit making life hard work for her nine year old son. These poems are a glimpse into their parent child relationship; their antics and adventures. The poems are bold, brave, funny and some – very moving. This collection shows just how funny, rude and naughty mums can be! It’s Dahl meets Dr Seuss meets Colin McNaughton with a sprinkling of Absolutely Fabulous.
Reviews
This book is perfect and so good to read since it's a poem and poem books are short because it's 3-6 words per line which is nice

It was really good because the mum acted really crazy which was very funny and kept me entertained throughout the book. It was a fiction book and the mum was the best character because instead of acting mum-like she acted like a teen. The most interesting bit was how her child thought stupid of her. I would recommend this book to people who have a sense of humor.

This was a fiction book and it really got my laughs out it was hilarious and i would definitely read it a million times again. I would most likely recommend this book to people who have an interest in comedy and generally people who you can bring a laugh out of.
