Recently we came across the book "My Mummy is a Plumber". As we've got a couple of keen mini builders in our midst we were intrigued!

Written by brother and sister team Kerrine and Jason Bryan, and published last November, it is the second in a series of books aimed at promoting skills to young children.

The publication comes at a time when there's a noted skills shortage so promoting plumbing as a valued career choice to both young boys and girls is a wonderful idea.

"Kerrine Bryan, the founder of Butterfly Books, has a background in engineering and is a STEM ambassador. She realised that as children we are simply just not made aware of what life truly has to offer in the workplace, regardless of gender." (Jason Bryan, Butterfly Books)
