The fourth and final book in the ‘Why Mummy’ series follows another momentous year in the life of refreshing modern mummy, Ellen Green, as she deals with the challenges of single parenting two teenagers on the cusp of adulthood, a ‘restructuring’ at work and an existential crisis as she tries to work out what the future holds for her once the moppets leave home. Ellen is now forty-eight with Jane on the verge of turning eighteen and Peter age sixteen, meaning the nightmare of double exam hell with A-Levels and GCSE’s looming. Newly single after her love interest transplanted to Antarctica, Ellen is also suffering further indignity in the form of the moppet’s dad, Simon, dating a woman a decade younger than her! And with Jane planning on going to university before the year is out Ellen is all at sea about what her own future holds once she is no longer a mother with children still at home and they are adults in their own right.
