We're delighted to announce that Mums Best, the mumsnet guide to the best stuff for parents - a quarterly compilation of mumsnet's product reviews - will shortly be available free of charge in Mothercare. Mums Best is a handbag-sized book/magazine that offers new and veteran parents alike your collected wisdom on everything you need to buy for your child from nappies to holidays, via pushchairs and trikes and a whole lot more. If you'd like a copy you can order one here for post and packing costs only.

Of course there would be no Mums Best without you, so to every member who's lamented the brakes on their travel system or raved about kids' clubs in Kos and found the time to send us a review, thank you. We hope you like it!

No it doesn't have an apostrophe and it's deliberate. We tested it with and without and it looks better without - it's a logo.

JustineMumsnet · 15/09/2005 11:02

So is mumsnet wrong, technically. We did debate it - went through mum's best and mums' best but neither really worked as a logo. Admit it does feel odd when typing it as the written word but I'm sure there are plenty of examples of logos that are grammatically incorrect that we don't really notice anymore. Hope so anyway!

Perfectly fair to raise it - sure you won't be the only ones. Hope you like what's inside anyway .

JustineMumsnet · 15/09/2005 11:17

we still might

JustineMumsnet · 15/09/2005 11:21

Yes - these are good points - it's a quarterly thing and this is the first crack so no doubt it will evolve. All further comments/ suggestions most welcome. As you know - most of our good ideas come from/ and/or are refined by you guys anyway . Thanks.

Sting like a bee though.

Mumsnet hq's offical stance on the bat is here . Dunno if we can fit it in the book though...

Hi there,
Can we ask if anyone has picked up a copy of mumsbest from Mothercare - have you noticed it out there - and if so what do you think of it?

JustineMumsnet · 26/09/2005 13:31

bump - someone must have read it!

JustineMumsnet · 26/09/2005 15:00

Thanks very much for that feedback - we'll have to get on to Mothercare and see what the story is. Do let us know if and when they show up!

In theory they are being given out to folks redeeming Bounty vouchers (at 20 weeks pregnant)- ie from behind counter - and those shopping for pregnancy/ new baby items by staff directly. We're not surprised they are not on display as such but are slightly concerned that staff have not heard of them... Thanks for pointing out - any more experiences would be most useful.
