Bookroo's summary

A child grapples with the antics of their seemingly perfect mom, who bakes cookies and cheers them up, yet insists on public displays of affection and cringe-worthy jokes. Is she truly the most embarrassing mom, or is there a deeper reason behind her actions? As the child navigates these mortifying moments, they must uncover whether their mom's behavior is a plot to ruin their life or something else entirely. Dive into this humorous and heartfelt journey to discover the truth behind a mother's love and the challenges of growing up.

From the publisher

Everyone has only nice things to say about my mom. Everyone likes her. She looks nice. She bakes great cookies and makes me feel better when I have a bad day. But would a really nice mom do embarrassing things like kiss me in public and tell loud jokes that no one thinks are funny? Well, my mom does those terrible things and worse - that’s why I am sure that I have the most embarrassing mom in the world and that my mom is trying to ruin my life… Or is she?
