MUMMY MANNERS is a humorous and insightful tome to help new mothers navigate a course through the maze of etiquette, morals and madness that comes from dealing with All The Other Mothers you will encounter whilst rearing your own precious child.
Because your child will have friends. And those kids will have mothers. And your friends will have babies. And become other people's mothers. And other people's mothers have opinions on everything, whether you request them or not. And whether you like it or not. You'll be surprised what hits your fan.
Libbi delivers home truths and plenty of laughs about the relationships, bumps and humps that arise between mums, on the playing field of motherhood that is never level, fertilised as it is by hormones and love.
Think Debrett's A-Z OF MODERN MANNERS crossed with elements of Christos Tsolkias's THE SLAP. But it's not the child that needs the slapping. It's the child's mother. MUMMY MANNERS delves into female competition but is ultimately about friendship -- making friends as a mother and keeping them. For never have trusted loyal friendships been more important or crucial, than in the role as a mum.
