Mother’s Day is just around the corner, so why not talk about some of the best maternal figures in literatures history. 1. Molly Weasley from Harry Potter She’s undoubtedly the best mother figure and handles 7 children, as well as Harry, with ease. She’s got this mothering thing down.

She makes mistakes and apologizes for them and understands that she’s still learning. She treats Park and Eleanor well and the love between her and her husband is inspiring. 3. Natalie Prior from Divergent Natalie is one of…
