Synopsis

Brought to you by Penguin.

The latest book from the No.1 bestselling author and host of the chart-topping Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast.

Letters on Motherhood is a collection of heartfelt and deeply poignant letters written by Giovanna to her three young sons, her husband and the family and friends who have inspired and supported her to become the mother that she is today.

Never one to glamorise the idea of a perfect family, Giovanna writes about the priceless highs and the challenging lows as she talks about the deeper universal truths of parenting including: coping with mum guilt, finding a work/family life balance, maintaining positive body image, rediscovering a sense of identity, and a parent's hopes, fears and expectations for their child.

Honest, heartwarming and hilarious, Giovanna's musings on motherhood are both a joy and a comfort, paying testament to the power of family, even in difficult and challenging times.

This book made me cry several times! I felt like it was written to me, all the self doubt I’ve felt since having my little boy, all the insecurities that I wasn’t good enough and that I was screwing it all up was written down in front of me by someone who was saying ‘look this is how I feel too, it’......more

Giovanna is a real one

Giovanna is a one-of-a-kind sort of person. She's genuine, talented, and well honestly? I just really like her

Her trademark humour and honesty remind us that positivity is key to making it as a mum... Giovanna knows there's no perfect way to parent - and that's why we will always love her! OK!
