Everyone, mothers, sons and daughters, can relate to this book. It illustrates that the words or sayings of our mothers-some of which we may have vowed never to repeat-are always with us. In fact, these words often find a stage for replay in the events and episodes of our adult lives. In an age of being constantly barraged by images and the influence of multiple media platforms, this book proves that a mother's human voice still has value, even years later.

A recent review on Amazon put it best: "I loved this book! It's a quick read, but it's filled with so many pearls of wisdom. At the end of one of the many short chapters the author encourages readers to 'write a book, tell your story...you might not change the world, but you might change a life.' My life has been changed by this book."

This book makes a great gift for the mother or motherly figure in your life.
