What is Alfie and mum about?
Alfie and his mum share a very special bond. Together they tell stories, explore the countryside and set off on exciting adventures, crossing fields, streams and even mysterious, dark houses. Alfie loves Mum’s untidy curly hair and knows that, with her beside him, he can face anything. This warm collection brings together two previously published stories celebrating the fun, imagination and security found in the loving relationship between a young child and his mum.
