"I ask three things of the books I read. I want to learn something,
I want to laugh, and, when a book is really special, I get to forge
a personal connection with a writer for as long as I turn the
pages. Catherine Pearlman has given me all three in this book, and
much more. She’s given me a resource I will refer back to over and
over again, both as a writer and a parent."

family life happier."
