About this title

Synopsis

A mom’s work is never done. Between keeping the house clean, doing the laundry, making the meals, and shuttling the family around to soccer practice, ballet recitals, etc. moms have got their work cut out for them! But what about the fun stuff? What about the stuff that will make a child’s eyes glitter with anticipation and excitement? And where can a Mom learn these invaluable tricks?

The Mom’s Guide to being a Superhero is a mother’s one-stop guide for over 100 skills and tricks for adding that extra touch. The book is a humorous, yet highly practical approach to what people need to do in order to spend a full day with a child (let alone three of them). It will be illustrated with line drawings, and will include such skills as:

• Make dresses for Barbie out of pillowcases • Tell a great story starring the kid(s) in the house • Fly a kite • Weave a French-braid and cornrows • Make your own Play-Doh and Silly Putty • Draw five important cartoon characters
