Il signor Poop sfila per le strade urlando sempre più forte e persino il preside Mentina ha bizzarri progetti per la testa. E tutto questo sotto gli occhi di Lizzie, che si prende cura del papà da quando non c'è più la mamma e che sta per scoprire quanto è bello provare a volare...

Fantastically funny, wise and charming motherhood sketches from award-winning illustrator Polly Dunbar. "Go away, I'm busy writing about the beauty of motherhood." Polly Dunbar is an award-winning illustrator who usually draws for children rather than adults, but when she had her own sons, she started recording the beautiful and maddening moments of parenthood with a doodle. Hello, Mom is her visual diary of the magical highs and absurd lows that many parents will recognize - from the shock and awe of the baby days to the delight (and terror) of the toddler years and the mayhem of sibling rivalry. Dunbar's fantastically funny, wise and enchanting drawings capture this precious and fleeting time with heart-touching perfection.
