    My Mother’s Garden is now selling!

    While queuing with my friend, Ann, to buy Alice in Wonderland movie tickets, my son came to me from somewhere. He told me something, but I barely heard him in the crowd. He wanted my phone and I gave it to him, and he disappeared again, with his father. After getting our tickets, I looked for my two guys but to no avail. Ann told me, “Oh Kak Emi, I heard Yassin saying something about your book, perhaps we should go look at Kinokuniya, they might be there.” And so we went to Kino. From the escalator, I saw my guys standing at the children’s book corner. Yassin held my hand and dragged me to a bookshelf. Tada!! He showed me my book! Yippee! It’s now officially selling at Kino! He was so proud of me that I wanted to buy the book, but I told him we already had a copy at home!

    Here are pictures from Kino taken secretly by my husband using my vintage Sony Ericsson handphone! Mind the quality hehhehe!
