Awkward Moments...In Everyday Life is a collection of stories and pictures that celebrate the humor in life's uncomfortable situations. An Awkward Moment is that brief moment in time when we feel inept, embarrassed, unsure, or uneasy. It is the time we lose some of our self-respect that humbling period of time when confidence is replaced by uncertainty and the arrogant become mere mortals again. This books recognizes the awesome power of laughter and attempts to harness just a little of its power to help all of us laugh at ourselves as we see ourselves within these stories.

This review is from: Awkward Moments: In Every Day Life (Paperback)
The stories and cartoons in this book are great to read with friends and family. While reading about awkward moments of others it reminded me of my own. My family had a great time recalling all of our own embarrassing blunders from holiday gatherings with the family. We couldn't stop laughing. This is definitely a great book to give as a gift but also perfect for yourself and your family to enjoy.
