I Love My Mummy

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

We love to read this book together. My two and a half year old asks for this to be read every evening and enjoys telling me what is coming up on the next page.

My little girl loved this book, we would read it every night. I would read the main parts and leave out the parts that she would like to say 'my mummy likes dancing in her underwear'
