Mother’s Day comes around once a year, although I can’t help but to think it should be a monthly gift of thanks for all that mums do for their little or fully grown ones.
So we’ve put together a Mother’s Day Gift Guide which can be used for inspiration all year round…
AD – GIFTED – please note some of the below items have been gifted, but all views are my own.

A Book in Time by Mark Stibbe – £2.99 Kindle – £8.23 Paperback – Available from Amazon.co.uk
A Book in Time is really a love story about a book’s longing over two centuries for the mother who bore it. Adopted by many different owners – some loving, others unscrupulous – this book longs to be reunited with an elderly author who cherished it as if it was her only child. As the book passes through many hands, it observes not only the way people treat it, but each other, and in all of this, its mother’s love sets the high standard against which everything is lovingly judged.
In a strange demonstration of synchronicity, the author – Mark Stibbe – experienced the culmination of his own search for a mother after completing this novel. Having been orphaned in 1960, and having never met or known his birth mother, Mark met her for the first time at the end of 2021, shortly before she died. So, there is more than a hint of Mark’s own search in the book’s quest for its author.
In the case of A Book in Time, in perhaps a unique way, art has magically imitated life even as life has magically imitated art.
