About the Book
An upcycling mom and a son who learns he's perfect just the way he isBook Synopsis
When Jake's mom upcycles every last thing in the apartment, Jake begins to worry that the only thing left to change is . . . him!
Jake's mom is not like most moms. Say there's a dumpster in the street, most moms will pass right by without a second glance. Not Jake's mom. "Look at this, Jake!" she'll shout. "We must have this! We must have this, too! And we simply must have this!" That's Jake's mom for you. She's a must-have mom.
Soon Jake begins to worry that his mom will want to change him too. Should he be this way? Or that way? Or another way altogether?
A heartwarming story about the unbreakable bond between a mother and her son, and a little boy who learns that he is perfect just the way he is.
