About the Book
Raising children can be more enjoyable when you look at the world through their eyes. In Momma Mona's Memories, author Mona Goldstein recalls anecdotes from the early years of her children and grandchildren that provide insights into their delightfully different, sometimes daffy, points of view.
Little ones hear and see the human experience in a thoroughly intriguing way. The results can be humorous, and often poignant. Listen carefully and you might hear a child's prayer that sounds like, "Our Father, who art in Heaven. Hello, what's your name?"
Watch a four-year-old son's helpful surprise produce an unexpected outcome. After his mother slid from one side of the kitchen to the other, he showed her the polish he used for the floor-maple syrup.
Life might flow smoother if your daughter didn't host "up-all-night- sleepovers" or arrange 5:00 A.M. carpools and if your sons weren't the original "odd couple," but it wouldn't be as interesting!
