The perfect antidote to a chaotic world, More Than Just Mum will have you crying with laughter
Hannah Thompson loves her family beyond words… but sometimes she wishes they would recognise her as more than just ‘mum’.

Determined to find herself a job that she loves, earn a whole lot of money and to have her teenagers respect her as ‘Hannah’ as well as ‘mum’; it might sound like a tall order, but she’s a mum on a mission…
A laugh-out-loud read of self-discovery, family chaos and love. Perfect for fans of Kristen Bailey, Sophie Ranald and Nick Spalding.
