About this audiobook
‘I was asked the other day what I thought the hardest part of parenting was. I’d have to say that it’s definitely the kids.’
TikTok sensation Clara Batten has dedicated the last few years to seeking the answer to one of life’s most crucial questions:
Is it possible to raise and nurture two small humans without losing your bloody mind?
The good news is, now she’s found (some of) the answers and is sharing her secrets with the rest of us! In this riotous book, Clara reveals:
- when it’s acceptable to buy your kids lunch from a kebab shop.
- why a jar of pickled herrings from Waitrose is the ultimate guilty pleasure, nay necessity, for a sleep-deprived parent.
- how to finally pursue your acting ambitions in your forties (despite a toddler sh*tting on the stairs during a self-tape audition).
Most importantly, Clara shows us that no matter how much we adore our little treasures, life isn’t just about their A, B and bloody Cs.
