'In this wonderful collection of letters, well-known Australians reveal what they would like to say to their mothers before it's too late, or would have said if only they'd had the chance. From Kaz Cooke to Kate Ceberano, Anna Meares to Anita Heiss, Julie Goodwin to Matt Preston, Di Morrissey to Jessica Watson, Australian personalities celebrate their mothers in a unique and heart-warming way. Their letters range from the deeply moving to the downright hilarious, from the quirky to the sentimental, but each offers a rare insight into the personal lives of our favourite celebrities and the special relationship they have with their mother.'

From that platform she went on to other television and radio and she soon became one of Australia's most loved female comedians. She was young, successful ... and single, so in 2000, like so many Aussies before her, Julia decided to try her luck overseas and jetted off to the UK. There was no instant success but she spent 8 years in the UK and ended up claiming both commercial and critical success on stage, radio and television. Her refreshing honesty captured the imagination of British comedy's elite and she worked with the likes of Stephen Fry, Catherine Tate, Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer, Graham Norton and her own personal Dalai Llama - the great Dame Edna. But there comes a time when an Aussie girl needs to come home...'(Publication summary)
