In a breathtaking combination of evocative illustration and poignant narrative, Mars Needs Moms! tells the story of a mother abducted by Martians and the little boy who decides he'll do whatever it takes to get her back-- even if she DOES try to make him eat his broccoli! But when his rescue mission goes slightly awry, it is Mom who comes to Milo's rescue, showing him just what it means to be loved by a mother.
The story is tenderly told, and serves as a touching, well-deserved tribute to mothers who love their children to the ends of the universe and beyond. What could all too easily have been a crassly comedic or overtly sappy tale instead finds a beautiful balance between light humour and a sense of deep, abiding respect for mothers everywhere. Mars Needs Moms! will not only delight and entertain, it will also help remind boys and girls that, while mothers may be broccoli-loving monsters, they are so much more than that as well.
