“Little ones will delight in the cheeky role-reversal that sees a young girl doing everything she can to get her reluctant mother out of the house, and teachers, particularly will enjoy the twist in the tale..”
– Bottom Shelf – Edu Blog
“touches on putting oneself in another’s shoes, mixed in with the amusement of a role reversal situation … offers plenty of teachable moments that are such a joy to learn.”
– Just Kids Lit
“This humorous story will have both kids and parents laughing out loud as it parodies the many strategies parents use to hurry their kids along in the morning. The role reversal is perfect for discussing routines with school age children as it gives them insight into the stages of getting ready that parents need to think about while keeping the mood light and entertaining. It’s also a great reminder for parents not to sweat the small stuff. Get Ready, Mama! feels like a great big morning hug when the sun isn’t quite up. ”
