Book Description

March 23, 2010 3 and upP and up
The Mischievous Mom at the Art Gallery features a thoroughly modern mother who makes a point of including her two children in her always-hectic life. In The Mischievous Mom at the Art Gallery, Mom takes her children to a swanky art gallery party. Although Jessie and Josh think standing around looking at art on a wall is B-O-R-I-N-G, they quickly learn otherwise. Nothing is ever really boring when Mom is around — especially when a “Do Not Enter: VIPs Only!” sign beckons. Behind that door is a world of adventure just waiting to be discovered. This book is for modern moms and their children — and for anyone who knows that not being afraid to think outside of the box can lead to the most memorable experiences of all.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Praise for Rebecca Eckler`s Knocked Up “Knocked Up is what would happen if Bridget Jones was finally impregnated by Mark Darcy.... At the end of nine months, Eckler has covered the basics of young motherhood in her own quirky and outlandish way.” ? New York Daily News

“Painfully funny.... Readers are treated to Eckler`s biting wit.... It`s fun to watch [Eckler] change from the woman who dreaded seeing mothers with infants...to being a mother herself.” ? Los Angeles Times

“[Eckler`s] frankness, quirky style and light touch are a winning combination.” ? Kirkus Reviews

“..this mommy memoir feels like a humorous crash course in maturity.” ? Publishers Weekly

“Hit[s] the mark among twenty- and thirtysomething mothers.” ? Library Journal

“A downtown girl attempts a stylish switch to yummy mommy. There appears to be no detail she`s reluctant to share. This isn`t supposed to be a parenting manual; it`s meant to be a funny, lighthearted take on a life in transition!” ? The Toronto Star Praise for Carrie Hartman’s Child of Mind

“In fifteen compelling full-page illustrations and with just 153 words, the author captures the three most likely areas of life pain for children with behavioral and emotional difficulties: being angry, being sad, and being “different.” Her book reassures both the child and the parent and reminds us that the child`s potentials can be realized and that life, though stressful for a special-needs child, can be beautiful.”? Review from John F. Taylor, Ph.D., author, The Survival Guide for Kids with ADD or ADHD

This review is from: The Mischievous Mom at the Art Gallery (Hardcover)
I sat down with my 3 year old daughter last night to read Mischevious Mom At The Art Gallery, written by Erica Ehm and Rebecca Eckler. My daughter was loved the story and found it funny that the Mom was getting into trouble but was having fun. She really loved the room with all the paints and wanted to get her easel out and start painting.

This is a great read for a bedtime story and to show that it is always good to have a bit of "mischevious" in you as long as it is for fun.

Make sure you pick up this book for your son or daughter and inspire them to create.
