My Mummy Loves Shoes

Description

Clare Grove's exquisitely illustrated book My Mummy Loves Shoes is guaranteed to bring a smile to the face of even the most fashion-fearing, fatigued multi-tasking mother, yummy or otherwise. Each page of this beautifully presented, gently humorous treasure takes the reader on a whimsical journey through mummy's collection of footwear, from the sensible to the simply sublime. Fashionistas will enjoy playing spot the Choos, Manolos or Miu Mius amongst jewel-encrusted moonlit skies and tropical rainforests, and for the children there's a little red shoe hidden on each page. This delightful story is ultimately about more than just shoes, it's an illustration of love. A must for every grown up little girl who remembers the world of magic within mummy's wardrobe, and perfect for sharing with the next generation of little feet tottering about in mummy's heels and lipstick.
