5.0 out of 5 stars MOM: THE GUIDING HAND BEHIND ALL THAT FAME & FORTUNE, May 17, 1996
By A Customer
MOTHER KNEW BEST is a perfect gift book for mom (Mother's Day, graduation, birthday, anniversaries) because it so compellingly illustrates the profound effect a mother has on a child. From Elvis Presley to Mother Teresa, Colin Powell to Milton Berle, the people about whom the Hornfischers write are carefully chosen -- and unfailingly inspirational.
