"When I Don't Like My Mamma" facilitates discussion

I wrote this very short children's book for a simple reasonIt is a device to enable a mother and daughter to examine their relationshipIt is so short that it can be read and discussed in a half-hourIt is not moroseIt observes the rulesBut by the end of it a motherand daughter will have assessed thingsdealing with their real feelingswithout the need forshrinks or pills
