Sobre IBD

Motherhood is supposedly akin to sainthood-a blissful, happy mother looking adoringly at her smiley, chirpy baby. And not a cocktail in sight. But the Flaky Mummy pulls the truth out from under the carpet-in a world full of dirty diapers, the only salvation is a chilled cocktail!This book is about the journey of six mothers with their quirky parenting styles:A Punjabi mother stuck in the perils of a joint family while trying to bring her child up;A tiger mother clawing her child’s path to the top;A fad-loving disaster of a mother hopping from one ’parenting method’ to the other;A lost NRI who makes her way back to her ’roots’;A modern socialite with her new must-have accessory of the season-a baby;A menopausal woman hitting ’jackpot’ with her last egg.Filled with hilarious tips and interesting observations, the Flaky Mummy is a witty satire on motherhood, which raises a toast to all the mothers out there struggling, surviving and succeeding at everything life throws their way--with a bit of assistance from their favourite tipple.
