Boots do them:

I can't vouch for the simplicity or otherwise of using this system, I have only ever done prints and not very often!  However, if I remember correctly it was easy to upload my photos and the prints came in the post fairly quickly.  Typically, the prices all seem to be "from....." so a large book may be quite expensive.  You will have to get your skates on as Mother's Day is the 14th March this year.  ;) 

I'm sure there will be other suggestions for you to consider.

I've used FreePrints and been surprised how easy it is to use, with great results  :)
Have only made one photo book so far but it's nice quality. The company also can make gifts with your photos such as mugs, canvases for the wall etc.
