Your Asian Mother Says: "You look just like Mummy when she was your age."
Your Asian Mother Means: "You will secure love and happiness thanks to my genes so essentially you owe me everything."
Benjamin Law and Michelle Law, the long-suffering children of an Asian Mother, bring you the hilarious Sh*t Asian Mothers Say, featuring the wisdom of Asian Mothers the world over, from "Eat every grain of rice, otherwise that's how many pimples your future spouse will have" to "She's just jealous – and racist". The book also includes quizzes ("Have You Failed Your Asian Mother?"), an interpretation guide to "What your Asian Mother is really saying", Ten Asian Mother Commandments (Thou shalt not sleepover) and an Asian Mothers' Guide to Beauty (bad perms, colour, eyelids). With illustrations by Oslo Davis that bring the disapproving Asian Mother to life, this is the perfect gift for the Asian Mother in your life – or perhaps her children.
