Former prime minister Dame Jacinda Ardern has written a very special children's book, Mum's Busy Work, which is available now for pre-order on BookHero! 🥳
Based on real conversations Jacinda Ardern had with her young daughter while she was prime minster of New Zealand, this book celebrates the relationship between working mums and their children. With striking art by Ruby Jones, Mum’s Busy Work shows how, even when a parent and their child are apart during the day, the love between them is unquestionable.
Here's a little excerpt from the book, featuring young Neve's point of view:
"Today I got out of bed and asked Mum what day it was.
'Monday,' she said.
I asked if that was a day care day.
She said yes. I stomped my feet."
Even though day care is fun, it’s still hard not to miss Mum throughout the week! But despite her busy job, there’s always time for stories, time for games, time for hugs, and time for love.
Mum’s Busy Work is a heart-warming picture book centering on a mother-daughter relationship and the unbreakable bond of love between a parent and their child!
