"..When you look at your mother, you are looking at
​the purest form of love you will ever know"  
~ Mitch Albom ~

When I first became a mum (actually when I first became pregnant), I reached for the first thing that made sense to me - books! During my first pregnancy with my now 7 year old I devoured anything that could provide any sprinkling of insight into what I may expect in my daunting upcoming role as a new mum - and what I ultimately found in conventional books on motherhood was a level of contradictory information so overwhelming that it became daunting in itself! I did, however, find a great degree of comfort in Kaz Cooke's hilarious Up the Duff: The Real Guide to Pregnancy  - an honest, raw account of her pregnancy journey in a diary-style journal that had me laughing so hard I would almost wet my pants (especially in the latter stages of pregnancy!). But seriously, I know first-hand just how difficult it can be to find real and honest accounts of motherhood in bookshops - so here are my shortlisted favourites that I can highly recommend!

What's not to love about the Mr Men for Grownups series?!! This is a classic read and a reminder that sometimes we can take our roles as mummies a little too seriously! Read it, have a laugh and pass it on to another mum who you think might need it.


Also available The Mr Men for Grown-Ups series:

Mr Greedy Eats Clean to Get Lean, Little Miss Shy Goes Online Dating and Mr Happy and the Office Party, Mr Grumpy Nails Fatherhood and Little Miss Lucky is Getting Married.

"Surprised by Motherhood is a poignant memoir of one woman's dawning realization that being a mum isn't about being perfect--it's about being present"
