Excellent book - highly recommended!!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Housewife Dilemma: Positive Perspectives for Reluctant Homemakers (Hardcover)
What a great book! Many women will be able to identify with this one. And the solutions towards the end of the book are helpful and empowering. Great illustrations too! I recommend this book to anybody to get a better understanding of "women's work".
5.0 out of 5 stars
Great insight,
This review is from: The Housewife Dilemma: Positive Perspectives for Reluctant Homemakers (Hardcover)
This is a wondeful book and a must read for housewives. Norma has great insight and has a way of writing that is enjoyable. You will not be disappointed.
5.0 out of 5 stars
A must before starting a family,
This review is from: The Housewife Dilemma: Positive Perspectives for Reluctant Homemakers (Hardcover)
It would be helpful for anyone who is considering giving up their career and starting a family to read this book first. Most of us are rudely awakened, especially with the loneliness and isolation of housewifery. The media presents a very skewed perspective. Norma is humorous and insightful in her writing. I highly recommend this little book.
