My Mother’s Invisible Shield

A fun, family

friendly and interactive picture book to celebrate mums and their love for
their children, written from the perspective of a child.

My mother has an
invisible shield. I’ve tested it. It’s true.

No matter what her
mischievous children attempt, mum is always ready and prepared. When they sneak
up behind her, she always turns just in time. With ease, she thwarts an attempt
to nab an afternoon snack before it's ready. They must try something cleverer.
But her shield is still there, and she avoids the attempt yet again. Maybe her
shield is like an astronaut suit, or like feathers, or like bubble wrap? But in
moments of need, that shield always falls in time for mum to scoop them up into
her arms.

This book was
written inspired by the author’s own children and written as a fun activity
with them. While the tricks are a bit silly, it carries an important message
about family and the bond between mother and children.
