Description:
Told from a child’s perspective, this picture book explores the mix of feelings—loneliness, curiosity, pride—when Mum leaves for her job each day. While Mum is away, kids imagine what she does at work and how she misses them too, but they also realize she’s working hard for them. Kes Gray’s text validates attachment and separation, celebrating mums who balance family and work. The story offers comfort and reassurance for families navigating working-parent routines.
