Milo doesn't get it: What's the big deal about moms? They're just slavedriving broccoli bullies. Yet they are worshipped the world over! Perhaps even the galaxy over--because here come Martians and they're after one thing only: moms. Milo's mom in particular. Who better to drive them to soccer practice and to pizza parties? That's quite a long way to come for a mom--could it be that Milo has been overlooking something special?
From Pulitzer Prize-winning comic strip creator of Bloom County and bestselling author Berkeley Breathed comes a funny, poignant book about how the unique love that binds our families can be overlooked in the rush and tumble of everyday lives . . . especially those of disgruntled little boys.
Berkeley Breathed lives in California.
