I love this book--she's a clever alterna-mom who writes joyously about life in New York with her playwrite husband and alterna-babies.

This was a great read. It's a good alternative to the "Girlfriend's Guide To..." series. While my parenting theory and practice are a little different than mine, it a good reflection on parenthood. Recommended for all Gen X parents.

great memoir from a parent who might not fit the "norm"--whatever *that* is--of parenting. humourous, insightful
