Remember all those motherly sayings that were the bane of your existence when you were young? Those real beauties like "Don't put that in your mouth - you don't know where it's been", "You'll thank me for this one day" or the unforgettable "Because I am your mother and I say so!"

Sound familiar? Thought so . . .

'My Mother Always Used To Say' is a condensed volume of the many motherly sayings we all remember from our childhood. They made us wince, they made us cry - and more often than not, they made us do exactly what she asked of us.

Redesigned for a new generation, this classic gift book is a charming collection of sayings, wisdom and wit to remind you that no one will ever love you like your mother.
