It's Mother’s Day and here at Willoughby we’ve been discussing and compiling a list of our favourite mothers in literature. We asked ourselves: What makes a mother? A mother can be a guide, an emotional support, a burden, a friend, she can have a wand and tiara even. Sometimes, a mother isn’t a mother at all. Like families, mothers come in all forms and guises. Sometimes a book can feel like a mother. We may feel comforted, protected and guided by the pages of our stories.
This year’s International Women’s Day and Women's History Month, the theme is #BreaktheBias. The campaign wants to help promote a world where difference and inclusion are celebrated and stereotypes, bias and discrimination are relegated to the history books!
