I had planned to do a few July 4th posts for Photos by El & The “MGR” but the holiday ended rather abruptly with a nasty asthma attack.  Gradually feeling better, so today I decided it was time to catch up on promoting The MoMmY-Go-RoUnD and the recent Tote GiveAway with purchase I’m doing with The Whistlestop Bookshop (Whistlestoppers.com).  However, then I remembered I’d heard Amazon was discontinuing displaying of reviews so sidetracking, I thought I’d check that out and copy and save those I’d seen before that had made me so happy and proud. When what to my wondering eyes 👀appeared ---nothing less than a Christmas in July gift! --- A New 5⭐ Review! I can’t begin to tell you how much it encourages and raises my spirits when I read a review like this! It’s wonderful to reach the heart and memories of another Mum ❤️ !! Thank you “P.x.”  You made my day! It feels like the 4th of July again—minus the attack! 😊

5.0 out of 5 stars -- "Go on give it a read if you want to bring back your own Mummy memories you've forgot...."

"I don't normally write any reviews but for this book I felt compelled to as it is not the type of book that I would read and I want to encourage so many Mum's out there to give it a read. From the moment I started to read it at the beginning of my summer hols I was hooked. It is a genuine funny, honest and so akin to many mums out there. It brought back so so many memories of me being a young mum that I had totally forgot. Get the tissues out as it is so funny and moving that you will not regret buying this book. The author has a knack of reeling you in 'hook, line and sinker' and bring you into a Mummy world that you realise that you share with lots of Mums out there. Well done Eleanor Alspaugh and your very lovely family. P.x"
