Mommy Needs A Break — David Emm

"Mommy Needs a Break" tells a zany tale of an over-stressed Mom whose day begins at the crack of dawn and goes rapidly downhill from then onwards. After a conspiracy of events causes Mom to reach breaking point, the family finally rallies around and realizes just how much Mom does for everyone. The story reaches a turning point as Mom is then showered with attention and taken on a lavish vacation, and the reader is admonished to look after Mom, because she is special and selfless in her pursuit of the family's wellbeing. Set to the same rhythmic meter of "The Night Before Christmas," this humorous story would make an ideal gift for Christmas, Mother's Day or similar occasions by children, grandparents or dads.
