Frank McCourt wrote an interesting book about his mother, Angela: Angela's Ashes.

Ron Weasley's mom, Molly, from the Harry Potter Books comes to mind. She reminds me of my own mother. They were both incredibly kind and loving but a little "out there".

I also thought of Molly Weasley first, followed by Caroline Ingalls and later Laura Ingalls Wilder from the "Little House" books. All three are strong women raising families in adverse and sometimes downright dangerous conditions.
