Ten short stories by an impressive collection of writers - Mark, Magorian, Gowar, Nimmo et all - about the relationships between parents and children. Particularly effective are contributions from Hazel Townson - a boy's attempts to change his mother so she doesn't mind him looking a mess - and a surreal tree story from Jenny Nimmo. There's a wide range of approaches and storylines here and it's certainly a useful investment for lower school book stocks.
