She's nice, my mum . . . My mum's a fantastic cook,and a brilliant juggler. She's a great painter,and the strongest woman in the world! She's really nice, my mum.

A warm, funny tribute to Mum (and to mums everywhere) by the brilliant author/illustrator Anthony Browne.

Each spread is a perfectly conceived whole, each picture demanding endless scrutiny . . . Original, unexpected, funny and typically Browne

Julia Eccleshare, Guardian
