I Love My Mummy
by
Giles Andreae
Illustrated by Emma Dodd
What is it about Mummies that makes them so lovable and so very special?
Could it be that they are good at wiping grubby noses and singing favourite songs or that they give expert cuddles?
Whatever the reasons, this cheery picture book explores the relationship between a mother and her toddler through a simple rhyming text about everyday experiences with which small children will be very familiar.
Bold, simple, large format illustrations add an extra dimension and are sure to appeal to the under fives.
