A perfect gift for mom, this humor poetry book celebrates the mother/child relationship, and how this relationship evolves as children grow up and become (or at least try to be) independent adults. Even as a grown-up, sometimes all we need is a hug from our mom-and access to their washing machine. Via fifty short, relatable poems, Mom, Can I Do My Laundry at Your House celebrates the amazing people who raised us and support us, even when we're still siphoning their streaming services and going grocery shopping in their fully-stocked pantry well into adulthood. With poems ranging from cheeky to sweet, side-splitting to sincere, these poems are sure to make mom smile for Mother's Day, birthdays, holidays, and just because!
Olivia Roberts is a writer and book editor, who loves her mother very much and is also very sorry for making her listen to screamo in the car (and for just being a teen, in general). She is based in Oakland, CA.
