5.0 out of 5 stars I'd Like you at Ten..., a great present for Mother's Day, April 24, 2002

This review is from: I Liked You At Ten... I'll Like You Again (Hardcover)

Author P. Taylor Copeland captures the transition from adolescence through adulthood with simple, yet meaningful experiences that all can relate to. Reading this book brought me back to a time when I really wasn't certain of my take on the world, or the world's take on me. A time when I looked to my own mother for guidance and acceptance.
It will always be a wonder to me how unique a mother's role truly is, and it's ability to survive through years of constant change while mantaining an attitude of grace. This book has a feel to it as if I had penned it myself! It is genuine, sincere, and classic.

This is a precious small book that cherishes the memories we all have of our children through the growing up years. Funny at times and sad at times only because it touches the heart .It also offers some good advice.The illustrations are nicely done and appropiate to the subject.
