A great book for every working mom

I bought this book when my son was [...]; he is now [..]and we remember this book very fondly. It is a great book because it makes children understand and appreciate having a mom who works. The pictures are really fun also. There are lots of little critters in the pictures and we noticed that the mouse and the spider appear on all of the pages. So the game was finding these characters on the page. I now give this book as a gift to all moms that are working. It makes a great gift and their children love it too! My son and I have saved this book today and remember it very fondly.

Fun and Entertaining!

A fun and silly book that we have enjoyed very much. My daughter and I find the story very funny and the drawings are wonderful! I especially appreciate how it helps make this working Mom look good!

FINALLY, a book for small children of working moms!

Although this book is recommended for children ages 4-8, I read it to my one-year-old. He loves the pictures and I hope it will help him understand working moms. My only problem with the book is that "My Working Mom" bakes terrific cakes and this working mom doesn't have time to bake terrific cakes!

Great Stuff, especially for the working mother in your life

This is a great gift for any working mother in your life that still has a sense of humor. If they are overwhelmed by career anxiety and working mother's guilt, however, stay away. Otherwise, it's a hoot, especially when it's a gift from the hapless, working father.
