Reviews

I love Dr. Weissbluth' s philosophy that the most important thing to have is a well-rested family. And fortunately, thanks to this book, most days (and nights) we do!

The honest truth is that Tracy Hogg has provided me with more insight into the things that matter than anyone else.

She achieves what, to hard-pressed parents, seem like miracles.

...in a different league than all other 'how to manage as a parent' books.

—— Good Book Guide

More complex - and funny - than one would ever imagine ... It's a candid account of a woman unafraid to reveal the scared, jealous, and immature sides of herself while painting a portrait of her rollicking, fun-loving Irish Catholic parents and brothers who bolster her, and the husband who understands and loves her

—— San Francisco Chronicle

Corrigan infuses her prose with vivacity and humor. She explores that process called growing up, and how it can happen in a defining moment, like a lightening strike, but also how it is illuminated in less dramatic ones, like flickers of heat lightning in a summer sky
