Mim and the Mother Muddle

Travelling Bookshop #6

by Katrina Nannestad

The right book might just change your life ...


Mim Cohen roams the world in a travelling bookshop, with her dad and brother and a horse called Flossy.

Flossy leads them where she will, to the place where they're needed most ... the place where the perfect book will find its way home.

Now Mim has arrived in Salzburg -- the city of Mozart and mountains, gardens and castles, Sacher torte and sausages ... and Mum!

Mim knows they're here to help Mum recover from the bump to her head. To show her love and patience until her memory returns.

If only they could find Mum the right book. If only Dad would stop giving everyone the same silly book.

The charming new adventure from award-winning author Katrina Nannestad and beloved illustrator Cheryl Orsini.

Great story. picking the right books for the right people . and the best part was how the mum remembered who she really was after reading the gingerbread man book. And best picture was one of all them riding their bikes.
