Overview
Why Mummy's Sloshed is the fourth and final instalment in Gill Sims' phenomenally popular Why Mummy series, following the wildly relatable misadventures of an exhausted, wine-loving mother navigating teenage children, A-Levels, driving tests and the general chaos of family life. Written with Sims' trademark biting wit and brutal honesty, this laugh-out-loud paperback has cemented her status as one of the funniest voices in contemporary British humour fiction, delighting millions of readers and reviewers alike.

About the Book
Mummy has been a wife and mother for so long that she's a little bit lost. Despite her very best efforts, her precious moppets still don't know where the laundry basket lives, can't tell the difference between being bored and being hungry, and firmly believe that saying "I can't find it, Mummy" is a perfectly acceptable substitute for actually looking. Amidst the swirling chaos of A-Levels, driving tests and looming adulthood, Mummy is doing her level best to keep the family afloat, even as everyone seems intent on drifting off in entirely different directions - one of which, inevitably, is towards yet another bloody snack. Feeling overwhelmed, underappreciated and permanently exhausted, there is only one truth Mummy holds onto: the bigger the kids, the bigger the drink. Fans of the series will relish this final outing, as Gill Sims once again turns the everyday absurdities of parenting teenagers into comedy gold, skewering school WhatsApp groups, exam stress, and the slow, bittersweet realisation that the kids are growing up and leaving the nest. Sharp, warm and painfully funny in equal measure, it's a fitting send-off for one of modern fiction's most beloved fictional mums.
