Junie and Ruby bicker all day. They bicker over breakfast, about clothes, and even over a pencil they find on the floor. They are so busy bickering they don't notice that Mummy is acting differently . . . she's huffing, she's puffing, and she's sprouting FUR!
When Mummy becomes the cheeky Mummy Monster, Junie and Ruby get a taste of their own medicine. They need to find a way to turn their Mummy back to normal . . . and to do that, they must put their differences aside.
Rochelle Falconer's debut picture book is a relatable story about family life, sibling rivalry, and mischievous mums with lots of humour and plenty of heart.
Rochelle Falconer was born in Jamaica but grew up in Birmingham, the oldest of six kids, raised by her single mum. As a teenager her head was always in a book. She loved to write – and at school the art department was where she felt most at home. Rochelle studied graphic design – and has worked for various design agencies as well as the gaming industry. It wasn’t until she took a break to raise a family, that she rediscovered picture books. Combining her early passion for writing and her love of drawing, Rochelle now spends her time creating characters she would love to see represented in picture books, and dreaming up their stories.
How To Tame a Mummy Monster is Rochelle’s debut authored book, published by Oxford University Press.
