Summary: I laughed; I cried
Review: This was a great book! It has a variety of essays, focussing on the theme of motherhood. I was very moved by some of them (Beth Kephart's essay about her son's efforts to play soccer; Ariel Gore's about being stuck in the hell that is family court), but also laughed at many places throughout. The "Drama Queen for a Day" short essays were great for the title as well as content.I was also struck by the depth of emotion expressed by the authors. Reading this book, I felt that it was telling the truth about being a mother; the emotion you feel towards your children is the strongest you'll ever experience.
