"The Upside-Down Mom" is the author's first collection not of poems, but of short prose. It brings together small, funny, and slightly absurd stories about one unusual family. A mom and her little son teach a crocodile to fly, head off to the North Pole, and then, together with Dad, prepare a New Year's treat for... the Christmas tree!
Every mother invents her own special magical world for her child. And the little one grows up in this loving world, soaking it in for the rest of their life. In a mom's universe, any miracle is possible, and by the age of three or four, the child themselves becomes a wizard, an inventor, a magician who knows no limits. And then they and their mom start inventing worlds together. This is how a shared game begins, which will last for a few wonderful, crazy years. And the result of the game will likely be the warmth and strong bond between two great wizards: mother and child.
