Funny Mummy: a memoir
Jenny Wynter’s memoir “Funny Mummy” was released in 2019.
Within its pages, Jenny shares her experiences navigating life's tough moments by using comedy as pain relief. Because while her life certainly hasn’t gone to plan, there’s been one constant throughout – laughter.
Jenny shines light into the darker parts of life, from grief and divorce to parenthood.
This funny, poignant, and insightful read will leave you inspired, leave you lighter and most importantly, leave you laughing.

More than laughs, Funny Mummy is also quite the page turner. In fact, Jenny moves through life with such passion, energy, humour and heartbreak, I needed ventolin to keep up. Fabulous!
