My Must-Have Mum

Jake's mum is not like most mums. Say there's a skip in the street, most mums will pass right by without a second glance. Not Jake's mum. "Look at this, Jake!" she'll shout. "We must have this! We must have this, too! And we simply must have this!" That's Jake's mum for you. She's a must-have mum.

So when Jake's mum upcycles every last thing in the apartment, Jake begins to worry that the only thing left to change is...him! Will Jake's mum try to change him too?

A heart-warming story about the unbreakable bond between a mother and her son, and a little boy who learns that he is perfect just the way he is.
