My Mom Always Looks After Me So Much! is a funny, heartwarming picture book about Little Gorilla's trip to the doctor to get a shot and, ultimately, about the love between a mother and child--told in simple sentences by master storyteller Sean Taylor, with sweet and richly detailed illustrations by the Waterstones Children's Book Prize-shortlisted David Barrow.
Little Gorilla is going to the doctor for a shot. His mom says it's because she has to look after him. But that's the problem--his mom always looks after him so much . First, she makes him eat broccoli, then, whenever he sneezes, he has to put on an extra sweater. And now a shot!
But it's not all bad--the doctor gives Little Gorilla a stick-thing that smells of strawberries for being brave. He loves it--but then he leaves it on the bus on the way home! Little Gorilla is distraught--but his mom takes him back to the doctor for another stick thing. His mom really does look after him so much.
Kids will love this hilarious fairy tale adventure packed with clever twists, familiar characters and page-turning fun.
