What This Book Is About....
This book is about Beverly Mann Lessard (the author) experiences of being a parent and grandparent. Very short stories were told of the experiences she had raising three daughters, plus experiences concerning her grandchildren.
.
Most stories were less than 2 pages long.
.
Some were funny, and some were very relatable.
.
My Thoughts On This Book....
I found this book very convenient. I found that I could sit down at any time and read 2 or 3 at a time, drip feeding me into the times when I was a young mother.
.
These "thoughts" and experiences, aren't to be a guide of any kind, just fun reading and there are plenty stories that I related to and I'm sure many a mother will do the same.
.
I noted it's targeted more to an American audience, due to certain American terms, people and sport, however this didn't phase me at all, as I was just glad that stories from any parts of the world, are bonded in some way to the similarities of raising children.
.
I'm giving a few samples here....
.
I particularly enjoyed the story of, Three Weddings And An Empty Bank Account .... not for the reasons of no money, but because this story reminded me of my own wedding and having a Garden Wedding, a huge smile sprang on my face, as with anyone who has thought about having a Garden Wedding ... "and what if it rains?"
.
When Did Kindergartens Get So Smart .... was another goodie I enjoyed ... a mother shovelling snow with her kids has quite an intelligent conversation with one child about ozone layers and why you don't eat snow. This had me in fits of giggles.
.
Recommendation
This comes highly recommended by me and would suit all mothers, all grandmothers and anyone who likes reading about family units.
