Download or read book Don t Call Me Grandma written by Ilene Leventhal and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2015-11-12 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To most people, the very word grandma conjures up images of old, blue-haired women in a flower-print apron and wearing sensible shoes in the kitchen, baking cookies. But times have changed. In her book Don't Call Me Grandma! A Guide for the 21st-Century Grandmother, author Ilene Leventhal dispels the stereotype of the so-called typical grandmother. Today's grandmother is so much more. They are socially active and even text and e-mail. They bring a whole new definition of cool, proving once and for all that some things never go out of style. Don't Call Me Grandma! is a handbook for the new generation of grandmothers, as well as mothers and even mothers-in-law. Blue hair has been traded for younger cuts, our baking for trips for fun fast food, and the flower-print aprons for tennis skirts, matching tops, and cute boots. Don't Call Me Grandma! A Guide for the 21st-Century Grandmother shows how to break out of that "old" image, and still bake cookies if you want. You can become someone who knows how to relate to her grandchildren. Your grandchildren will never think of you simply as "grandma" ever again.

Oh, sure, Mama and Daddy don't live together, and Grandma gets a little tired of Mama going out to the disco all the time, but Kendra knows that her mama loves her and will always be there for her. However, when Kendra's father dies in a tragic motorcycle accident, something changes in Mama and life is never the same for Kendra again. After Daddy's death, Kendra's mother, Pearl, starts to date again and ends up pregnant, giving birth to Kendra's baby brother. After the baby's father and Pearl break up, Kendra's mother falls into a dark depression, and Kendra can do nothing but watch her mother self-destruct. Pearl soon directs her rage and hurt at Kendra, treating her with cold disdain, hot anger, or irrational behavior. As the years go by, things only get worse as Pearl enters one failed relationship after another, has two more children, and relies on Kendra to be the responsible one. Through it all, Kendra knows that the only way she can ever find herself is to leave home for good. But does she have the strength to break the cycle of abuse, or will her own life follow her mother's tragic path? There's only one way to find out

Download or read book I Don t Know What You Know Me From written by Judy Greer and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You know Judy Greer, right? Maybe from The Wedding Planner, 13 Going on 30, Carrie, Arrested Development, or The Descendants. Yes, you totally recognize her. And, odds are, you already feel like she’s your friend. In her first book of essays, I Don’t Know What You Know Me From, Greer writes about everything you would hope to hear from your best friend: how a midnight shopping trip to Walgreens can cure all; what it’s like to wake up one day with stepchildren; and how she really feels about fans telling her that she’s prettier in person. Yes, it’s all here—from the hilarious moments to the intimate confessions. But Judy Greer isn’t just a regular friend—she’s a celebrity friend. Want to know which celebs she’s peed next to? Or what the Academy Awards are actually like? Or which hot actor gave her father a Harley-Davidson? Don’t worry; Greer reveals all of that, too. You’ll love her because, besides being laugh-out-loud funny, she makes us genuinely feel like she’s one of us. Because even though she sometimes has a stylist and a makeup artist, she still wears (and hates!) Spanx. Because even after almost twenty years in Hollywood, she still hasn’t figured everything out—except that you should always wash your face before bed. Always.

Book excerpt: This “powerful” (BuzzFeed) award-winning debut about love, grief, and family welcomes you into its pages and invites you to linger, staying with you long after you’ve closed its covers. “Quietly moving . . . connected by a kind of dream logic . . . deeply felt . . . There is joy and tenderness in . . . Fung’s elegant storytelling.”—The New York Times Book Review How do you grieve, if your family doesn’t talk about feelings? This is the question the unnamed protagonist of GhostForest considers after her father dies. One of the many Hong Kong “astronaut” fathers, he stays there to work, while the rest of the family immigrated to Canada before the 1997 Handover, when the British returned sovereignty over Hong Kong to China. As she revisits memories of her father through the years, she struggles with unresolved questions and misunderstandings. Turning to her mother and grandmother for answers, she discovers her own life refracted brightly in theirs. Buoyant and heartbreaking, Ghost Forest is a slim novel that envelops the reader in joy and sorrow. Fung writes with a poetic and haunting voice, layering detail and abstraction, weaving memory and oral history to paint a moving portrait of a Chinese-Canadian astronaut family. “Ghost Forest is the tender/funny book we can all appreciate after a hellish year.”—Literary Hub

Book excerpt: From potty-training expert and social worker Jamie Glowacki, who’s already helped over half a million families successfully toilet train their preschoolers, comes a newly revised and updated guide that’s “straight-up, parent-tested, and funny to boot” (Amber Dusick, author of Parenting: Illustrated with Crappy Pictures).

Her six-step, proven process to get your toddler out of diapers and onto the toilet has already worked for tens of thousands of kids and their parents.

If you’ve ever said to yourself: -How do I know if my kid is ready? -Why won’t my child poop in the potty? -How do I avoid “potty power struggles”? -How can I get their daycare provider on board? -My kid was doing so well—why is he regressing? -And what about nighttime?! Oh Crap! Potty Training can solve all of these (and other) common issues. This isn’t theory, you’re not bribing with candy, and there are no gimmicks. This is real-world, from-the-trenches potty training information—all the questions and all the answers you need to do it once and be done with diapers for good.
