Ages 4 to 8 years. Rachna Gilmore, a Governor General's Award-winning author, draws on the classic parental trope of "When I was your age..." This sensitive story tells the tale of a little girl who just can't seem to measure up to the politeness, cleanliness or quietness that her mother supposedly exhibited as a child. The ghost of "Mommy past" haunts the girl with her extreme good manners and prim demeanour ... until Grandma makes a visit and banishes those ideas of perfection for good!
