Nancy Moser knows all about kids, and has written a most delightful book that is hysterically funny in some places, and tenderly poignant in others. She introduces the rader to a loving God who cares and understands that parenting is a tough job.

About the Author
Nancy has written two books of inspirational humor besides "Save Me": "Motherhood: A Celebration of Blessings & Blunders", and its new companion book, "Expecting: A Celebration of Waiting & Wonder". Recently released was the first novel in her Mustard Seed Christian fiction series entitled, "The Invitation". She has had over 50 articles published in such magazines as Today's Christian Women, Marriage Partnership, and Good Housekeeping. Nancy has a monthly parenting column in Living with Teenagers. She teaches humor and novel writing at a regional college and is an inspirational speaker.
Nancy has been married twenty-three years--to the same man. She and Mark have three children: 20, 17 and 13, which means they have a zillion years experience in the wonders and pitfalls of parenting (or maybe it just seems that long). She needlepoints voraciously, kills all her houseplants, and can wire an electrical fixture without shocking herself. She is a fan of anything antique--humans included.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Similar to Erma Bombeck with a spiritual point. Excellent!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Save Me, I Fell in the Car Pool (Paperback)
Short, easy-to-read pieces that really hit home. I could relate. I liked the humor combined with the spiritual lesson. The people lived their faith in every day circumstances. It made me laugh and cry. Covered kids of all ages, relatives and a woman's personal spiritual walk.

You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll read it again and again!,
This review is from: Save Me, I Fell in the Car Pool (Paperback)
Nancy Moser's take on the life of the typical wife and mom is right on! She is the master of the clever turn of phrase and her insight into family relationships is keen. You'll take away incredible encouragment from this book but reading it feels like plain ol' fun! Lots of real-life examples, plenty of spiritual 'food'. Highly recommended.
