Dear Boobs: A book of poems about the love, leaks and let-downs of breastfeeding by Claire Foskett.
I was excited to receive a copy of Claire’s new book for review, since I am a former breastfeeding mother myself. It is several years since I breastfed my second child, but I still remember those crazy days and all the mood swings and mess.
Poems are a great way to represent our feelings, and Claire approaches her observations with humour and emotion mixed together. Her style of writing reminds me of Roald Dahl, and I love the illustrations in this book, and especially the Recipe for Breastfeeding Mums. There are some laugh-out-loud funny poems including A Cautionary Tale and Flashing, and there are more serious thought-provoking ones including Tired and Day Three.
Claire has included her own breastfeeding experiences in these poems, and her husband wrote a lovely poem to finish the book as well, which I thought was a nice touch. We often get so involved in supporting the mother that we forget about the father standing helplessly watching. Husbands and partners do take an active role, but it may not always be recognised.
I would recommend this book if you are a
breastfeeding mum, if you are pregnant, or if you still remember those days and
want to chuckle and reminisce. I will pass the book on to my sister who just
had her first baby, and then to my friend who is pregnant, and I know they will
relate to the poems and enjoy reading them.
You can find Claire on social media and you can buy
the book here.
