An enchanting, down to earth meditation on motherhood,
By "stacyactii" (Aptos, Ca United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: This Woman Deserves a Party! (Hardcover)
While I am not yet a mother myself, I am surrounded by women who are all wonderful mothers (starting with my own!). This book is the perfect gift for these women in my life, but not just because it's a book on motherhood. It is enchanting (all of Engelbreit's books are; just look at her art work!) but it is also down-to-earth, never sappy or over-sentimental, as some "motherhood" books can be. There are quotes and poems and short stories about various stages and moments in the lives of mothers, and these are alternately funny, touching, witty, meditative. Sections such as " All Mothers Are Working Mothers", "Let's Hear It for Mom", and "Dads in Shining Armour" all seem to have been written especially for these special and incredible moms. As always, a treasure of a little book from Engelbreit.
