My Mother Said is a collection of treasured sayings celebrating the wit and wisdom of mothers. In this beautiful little book, many daughters share the invaluable lessons they have learned about life, love and happiness. They reflect on what their mothers counsel has meant to them, and how it has helped them to become wiser people themselves. Apart from traditional sayings passed down through generations of mothers, all the pearls of wisdom found here are original to the women who revealed them. Subjects range from career aspirations to wearing uncomfortable (but very pretty) shoes, from getting rich to finding the right partner. For mothers and daughters alike, My Mother Said will warm the heart and raise a smile.
