The Illustrated Mum

---

Dolphin and Star are sisters who adore their mum, Marigold — a vibrant, heavily tattooed woman who is fun, unpredictable, and full of personality. But beneath her colorful exterior, Marigold struggles with mental health issues, mood swings, and the pressures of raising her daughters alone.

Star, the older sister, longs for stability and dreams of living with her real father, while Dolphin is fiercely loyal to Marigold and tries to keep the family together. As Marigold’s illness worsens, the girls must face difficult decisions about safety, love, and what “family” really means.

The story is emotional and honest, blending humor and heartbreak in Jacqueline Wilson’s signature style.
