Publisher Description: For better or for worse, in sickness and in health, will I love Mama as much as she loves me? This true story documents a lifetime of love, hope, and the unbreakable bond between a daughter and her mother across multi-generations. It also portrays a kind of unconditional love that pardons, forgives, and reconciles. Mama's Love Is Extra Large will resonate with the hearts of all adults and children. NOTE: This picture book is based on a true story by the author who grew up with a schizophrenic mother, and how she learnt to love a mother with special needs. The author hopes to raise awareness on mental health, reduce the stigma associated with such illnesses, and inspire as well as encourage caregivers who are taking care of a mentally-unwell family member. This book will be a helpful conduit to spark conversations with afflicted children (in abusive situations) and hopefully bring healing and hope to their tender hearts. |
