This book of Erma's gave me hope to get through mid motherhood, my 4 teenagers were bouncing from every angle to drive me crazier every day. I read this book and found some peace for the rough patches, and laughter instead of the tears I was shedding all the time. So wonderful not to feel that I was the reason for any failure for my kid's lives! "Mike and the Grass" was my favorite vignette to open my heart and let peace funnel in. It helped me through my Empty-Nest Syndrome as the kids went off to adulthood one by one.
Great job, Erma!
