Momumental: Adventures in the Messy Art of Raising A Family - Tapa blanda

MOMUMENTAL Family life is an adventure in becoming real...

Jennifer Grant’s girlhood dream of being the perfect mom withered quickly once she got a real taste of the messy, creative, sometimes hilarious, and often taxing process of raising a family. With MOMumental, she presents a warm, compassionate book filled with uncommon and amusing insights about being an intentional parent—and about realizing that family matters, no matter what yours is like.

“Grant gives moms a real treasure in this book: the knowledge that none of us is perfect and yet each of us is up to the monumental task of building a great family.” CARYN DAHLSTRAND RIVADENEIRA, AUTHOR

“Jennifer Grant’s new book is as refreshing as a latte break, as forgiving as your best friend, and a lot cheaper than a therapist. Grant will make you realize that your kids will be fine—and so will you.” MEG COX, AUTHOR

“Wow. Jennifer Grant’s MOMumental is more than a parenting book. It is a love story reminding us that imperfection should be celebrated, not feared.” KIRK MARTIN, FOUNDER OF CELEBRATECALM.COM AND CELEBRATEADHD.COM

“MOMumental’s wit and wisdom so enraptured me, I found myself taking notes. Moreover, it elicited such from-the-bottom-of-my-soul laughter that I caused a full-blown scene on the cross-country plane ride where I read it. Fasten your seat belts, folks; you’re in for an unforgettable ride.” CATHLEEN FALSANI, JOURNALIST
