This is a cute story that I'm sure any child with siblings will appreciate. When there's more than one child there are never enough mothers to go around. Morley shares this sentiment and when he feels like his mom just doesn't have the time to pay any attention to what he has to say, he does what any kid in his situation would do, ask for more mothers. But be careful what you wish for, because every wonderful thing in life always has it's down side. Every action has its consequence <- something I am greatly trying to instill in my own kids right now.
I know this book is going to become a new favorite in our household.

I really liked the story. The need for more mothers and how they were acquired was well done. "The classic message "be careful what you wish for" was well demonstrated. But the real message - that we really only need one - came at the end and didn't clink you over the head.
I didn't love the illustrations. They seemed a little rough. But they depicted the actions well enough.

It's short, funny and perfect as a bedtime stories for kids!Haha, this book is hilarious because of the appearance of "more mothers", but it is cute and entertaining, and also this book actually makes me think of the responsibilities of a mother, and mothers are noble. They care about us, nag us, scold us but from the bottom of the heart they love us more than anyone else! So, mothers are the best! Let's appreciate what mothers done for us! Love ya, mum!!
