Family & Relationships

A celebration of the most powerful force on earth.

A mother's love is like no other - both fierce and quiet, strong and gentle, demanding and selfless, incredibly complicated and yet also the most simple thing on earth. It changes form and takes a new shape as her children grow and take their own steps into the world, and yet through all these variables it is always... there, unrelenting and eternal. And, as overprotective as they can oftentimes be, a mother can always be counted upon to offer comfort and consolation. Their love is the safe haven we return to no matter how old we are.

This little book is a celebration of that love, and alongside the sage sayings and words of wisdom, you will find a treasure trove of some of the things only a mother would say to her children. And while we all know that "I want doesn't get", if you wish to delight in the sacred bond you share with your own mum, or simply feel inspired while on your own motherhood journey, this is the book for you.

"When you look into your mother's eyes, you know that is the purest love you can find on this Earth." Mitch Albom

A modern mothering handbook - with none of the answers and all of the encouragement.
Everyone tells you that having children is life-changing (and we're not just talking about your new habit of binge-watching Bluey episodes), but you don't really believe them until you're there in the trenches, dealing with yet another toddler tantrum in the middle of the street, after realising you forgot to buy milk, all on four hours of (broken) sleep. Parenting is one of the hardest jobs in the world, and yet everyone assumes you should be enjoying it twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, which is funny because that pretty much describes your working hours. Oh, and did we mention that there are no toilet breaks, or holidays, or dare we say it... wages?
This book will be a handy companion as you deal with the ups and downs of motherhood. From making your way through those first few months of the newborn haze right through to sending them off into the world as (almost) proper adults, it contains a treasure trove of advice and words of wisdom from parents who have done it and got the (vomit-covered) T-shirt to prove it. While motherhood is undoubtedly special, it's not without it's challenges... and anyone who says otherwise is either a saint or has a really good nanny.
"Being a mom has made me so tired. And so happy." Tina Fey
"There's no way to be a perfect mother and a million ways to be a good one." Jill Churchill

Brimming with messages of love, practical tips, inspiring quotes, heartfelt reflections and funny anecdotes, The Little Book of Mom is the ultimate ode to the highs and lows of motherhood.

Homer and Bart. Phil and Luke. God and Jesus. Charles and William. Perhaps no other relationship is as complex, rewarding and ever-changing as that of a father and son. Whether the son becomes a mini-me of the father or rebels entirely, who you grow up to be is inevitably shaped by your father.
Over the last 50 years, the relationship between a father and son has changed from being a more distant and emotionally strained one to a more loving, open and honest one, which provides a whole new minefield for fathers to navigate. They're more hands-on than ever before, no longer just the traditional breadwinner and disciplinarian. But this thankfully means the father-son bond is often now stronger than ever, as this book shows.
Packed full of facts, quotes and trivia, The Little Book of Fathers and Sons is the perfect insight into this unique relationship, whether the parent or child. Full of wit and wisdom, this is the perfect gift for your old man or little man.

We teach our children how to tie their shoelaces, how to read, how to ride a bike. We explain the weather and rainbows and why people have jobs. But when it comes to explaining the forceful, baffling, intense and marvellous emotions that we might experience, well, things become vague.

Nurturing your child's ‘emotional intelligence’, so they can understand and process their own emotions, is one of the most important things you can teach your child. But parents are often at a loss as to how best to do this. And your child’s big, complex emptions can also be somewhat scary.

In this book, clinical psychologist and family therapist Dr Anne Lane provides a compass through that haze of uncertain emotional parenting, to help parents teach their children the crucial life skills that create emotional intelligence. She equips you to understand your child’s emotions from pre-schooler through to pre-teen and, importantly, gives you the tools and advice you need to help THEM accept and understand these emotions.

As the conversation around children's mental health continues to grow, this is the book all parents need.

With jokes, quotes, to-do lists and even dad bod tips, this laugh-out-loud handsomely packaged gift is a hilarious celebration of the world’s most misunderstood and fragile species of man.

Their bellies may stretch their spandex beyond saving and their capes may only fly after an ominous-sounding fart, but – make no mistake – dads are superheroes. Well, half the time, at least. Because, let's not forget, when it comes to messing things up, dads are also incredibly self-sufficient. Ignored by moms everywhere and taken advantage by babies of all ages, being a dad is arguably the world's toughest job (after motherhood, of course). Overworked, underpaid and constantly in need of feeding, dads deserve just as much attention, validation and an equal share of the duvet as moms, and yet often have to settle for second best. From taxi-ing teenagers to funding fun, juggling jobs to half-baking house chores, dads simply are the best. Even at their hungover worst.  

Little Book of Dad is a celebration of dad-hood, daddy-ing and all the dad-based shenanigans that comes with it. The bitesize fun book is the perfect impulse gift for exhausted dads of all strange shapes, sizes and smells, which, last time we looked, was all of them.

Originally published in 1891, this hilarious (and informative) collection is a treasure trove of essential advice any man or woman, or couple, would be foolish to ignore.

From advice about how to find the perfect partner…

• Don't marry a villain.
• Don't marry a duke, or anyone who travels on his title.

…to advice about how to wed…

…as well as general words of wisdom…
