Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

This is a sensible, well-organized, and well-written guide through the minefield of managing life as a single mother. The author was a facilitator for the Vanderbilt University Single Mother's Group and uses the real-life problems and solutions that have come out of it as examples. Topics as diverse as plumbing, raising psychologically as well as physically healthy children, and nutrition, are covered in brief narratives. Valuable more for inspiration and encouragement than for in-depth instruction, this is an affordable addition to life skills sections of public libraries. Single moms will appreciate it. Recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for Single Moms Out There, June 23, 2001
By A Customer
I think that all single moms should get this book. With a baby on it's way in less than two weeks, I feel so much more at ease about bringing this baby into the world, and doing so with confidence. It's highly inclusive of financial, emotional, and time-management issues. Great guide to get you single moms started!
