Bought the book from Mr. Healy personally in Canton, Tx yesterday for my almost 7 year old autistic son who LOVES to read. The most exciting part for him, is to hear the read along on Mr. Healy's YouTube channel. We always appreciate an amazing read, and I am a fan of anything that makes my baby smile! Thank you for the autograph C.M. Healy, we will be purchasing more of your books soon. Kaycee Lea Jenkins, Amazon Such a cute and sweet book with a perfect message. If you like If You Give a Mouse a Cookie by Laura Numeroff then you'll love If Mom Became an Octopus! - cheyann12, Amazon Excellent book for the busy mom's of the world and their children! Being a single mother I can appreciate all the duties a mom has and having a super great son to help me and encourage me makes this book extra special to our family. Very well written! A MUST HAVE for mom's to read with their children. - marcell94, Amazon I met C.M. Healy over the weekend and purchased this book for my son. He LOVED it! We had just purchased a few other books in the same week and this was the one that he wanted to read over and over. He laughed a lot, asked questions, and learned an important lesson. Kudos to the author! - Wester97, Amazon This story is one of my son's favorites (6 years old). It opened up great discussion about how moms (and dads) would appreciate help to get everyday chores done and that allows us to have more fun together: ) - Brianne Normandin, Amazon Wonderful for toddlers. Keeps their interest with funny illustrations, and the message is beneficial for both child and parent. It also reminds parents we can't be everywhere and everything to everybody. - Gary F., Amazon
