Allison Pearson IS our goddess!
This is a book about me and my friend, and a friend of hers, and every working mother there is...
Thank you, Allison!
Amazingly enjoyable language, and every single line in the book is so true!
I have four children myself, and have always worked full time at a pretty stressful job, and I could relay to every word in this book.
Wonderful read!
