Description

Irreverent haiku titles have emerged as their own mini-genre - this is the first to focus on motherhood. Genuinely funny, this title will appeal to all modern mums. It is a great gift or impulse buy. This collection of irreverent haikus reflects on the reality of motherhood, from the television's role as babysitter to cleaning up a spilled plate of Spaghetti, from the smell of a dirty diaper to never having a private moment. It's the perfect gift for hip moms with young ones at home - it can be picked up and read for a minute and a half, then put down to wipe a nose or settle an argument; it can make a mom laugh harder than she has all day in that same minute and a half; it can make her shake her head in admiration, agreement, and disgust all at the same time. "Haiku Mama" is a book that mamas (and their family and friends) will love.
