In talking about her new project the mother of two stated:  “This book is about what I learned - about the jobs you need to master, the advice from other women that helped me, as well as some realities about the life and culture we live in that informed my perspective. You can take on the most difficult job in the world – raising daughters  – and not only live to tell about it, but smile along the way.”

My Take on the Book
Help Wanted is a book that is a page turner! I found it to be fun, engaging and one that will make you look at your own mom in a whole different way. I know that I have always appreciated my mom and also my wife for what they do on a daily basis, but as a father, this book opened my eyes even further. As I get ready for mothers day I have to say that this book is a must read for any mother or anyone who has a mom. You will definitely appreciate what is shared and will find that this is something that you will want to share with others!
