Written with clarity, concision, and wit, this short, yet indispensable handbook is better than flowers, more guilt-free than chocolate, and gives back to the woman who sacrifices so much of herself every single day.

REVIEW

Sokol gives the reader an inspirational look at motherhood and its divine origins.  Motherhood is a divinely ordained calling and gift intended to benefit all who participate in any way.  Mothers have such a huge impact on the world and yet often receive the least recognition.  I think what I appreciated the most in this book was the emphasis on the importance of motherhood regardless of what the world says.  That despite the enormous challenges that mothering brings the rewards are beyond price.  I also liked the fact that she pointed out that mothering goes beyond having children of one's own. A wonderfully inspiring and hope-filled book that I can heartily recommend.
