5.0 out of 5 stars The Single Moms Little Book of Wisdom, July 18, 2006

By	Linda Tucker (New York) - See all my reviews

Love it! Love it! Love it! Cudos to Cassandra for having the insight and courage to write this gem of a book. Every single mother should have a copy of this book. It touches on so many important issues that I don't know where to begin. You'll learn not to beat yourself up over things that are out of your control. You'll learn how to tune out negativity from others so that you can focus on living your best life. You'll also learn what to look for and what not to look for in a mate. It's a small book that packs a big punch.

What I like most about it, besides the practical information was that I felt like Cassandra was right here with me. I feel like she understood my pain and my hopes for the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars Much needed motivation and clear advise, December 9, 2008

By	K. Johnson (Central OR USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book has a lot of advise that can actually help any busy woman, not just a single mom, about believing in yourself and how to have that self respect you need. The encouraging parts would really help a newly single mom too, especially the one that says it's okay to grieve after a divorce. The advise is just very down to earth and candid, and I love the format. There's a wise saying and then an essay on it, so you could read one a day and focus on taking those small steps each day. I'd recomend this for any woman and especially for moms looking for a boost to their confidence.
