Here's a biographical fiction picture book that narrates the true and brave life story of an amazing yet ordinary mother in a typical Hong Kong family. For hundreds and thousands of years, rarely any Hong Kong women have been featured properly and prominently in traditional Chinese genealogy. To do justice, the author and the illustrator join hands in bringing Hong Kong women back to centre stage. With accurate recounts and beautiful illustrations, this book pays tributes of love and reverence to all incredible moms who work hard and sacrifice silently for their children and family. Herstory is a must that feminist moms, teachers and librarians should get for their children's bookshelf.

There was no other reviews or pics of inside the book so I assume it was a story book suitable for my children. But it's actually a simple biography. Lovely pictures but unfortunately not what I was after.
