A perfect book for Mother's Day, Carry Me!, captures both the joys and the struggles of having young children, and shows that we all need a little break sometimes.Wilbur refuses to walk anywhere. He loves to be pushed in his buggy; it's such a relaxing way to see the world. And he really loves to be carried ¿ whether it's on his mummy's shoulders or getting a piggyback, it's simply his favourite way to get about. But as Wilbur gets bigger and continues to pick up extra props when he's out and about (a useful stick, anyone?), pushing Wilbur up hills in his buggy gets harder and harder. Poor Mummy's back is getting quite sore and she is feeling so very tired. So tired, in fact, she might just have a little rest in Wilbur's buggy... A sunny, funny book that all parents and children will enjoy sharing together.

"Wilbur has always loved to be carried. Of course, now that he's bigger and stronger and more active... he still likes to be carried. Or given a piggyback ride. Or pushed in his cozy stroller, with a prime view of the world going by. When Mommy asks Wilbur to walk somewhere, his legs say, 'Not today, thank you.' Wouldn't his empty stroller be lonely? But today Mommy is achy and tired. So tired, in fact, that she might just have to take a break in Wilbur's stroller... Kids and their caregivers will both get a giggle out of this twist on a familiar scenario--a sunny, funny tribute to doting moms everywhere."--
