Helene absolutely transforms the ups and downs of parenting into witty illustrations that will make you chuckle and maybe even tear up a little. Her work is that of a love letter to the wonderful mess that raising children is. She has a knack for capturing the little things that make parenting both wonderful and exhausting, especially those never-ending questions kids ask. She perfectly captures the dual reality of parenthood- how you can be completely overwhelmed one minute and utterly enchanted the next.
