Some feedback:

‘Real mums sharing very real stories – warts and all – about the career upheaval becoming a mum often brings. If you are a working mum or about to become one, this is your go-to book!’

– Debbie Hatswell, founder of Story Mama and Board Member, Children’s Book Council of Australia

If there’s one conversation we need to be having more, it’s the one about the complexities of being a working mother in Australia right now…There has to be a way to make it work and I really believe that sharing stories like these will help get us there.’

– Lucy Kippist, Parenting Editor, Kidspot.com.au

‘My journey’s been about loving what I do, having a purpose and feeling that I’m making a difference. The stories in Working Mums truly echo that sentiment.’
