This book is like a great talk with your best friend over coffee...especially written for moms, by a fellow mom, you will LOVE this book if you think only your older female relatives give ridiculous advice...if you ever want to bring a Happy Meal into a sit down restaurant...from the back:
"You are what you eat."
"The best things in life are free."
"You can't get pregnant while breastfeeding."
We've all heard the cliches. But are they true? Karen Linamen proves that in the wild and wacky world of family life, these sayings hold water about as well as a pair of wet pantyhose. Debunking twenty-two familiar myths, she offers sidesplitting observations and commonsense solutions on everything from lethal lunchbox leftovers to the postnatal body. Through it all, Karen inspires, informs, and entertains as she celebrates the offbeat upside of family life.
