Book overview: Let’s face it: Moms are the most advanced human models on the planet. Fortunately, author Doreen Cronin and illustrator Laura Cornell—who’ve spent a combined total of four years on the New York Times bestseller list—know everything there is to know about the subject.

Wickedly funny and acutely perceptive, this is a book that, basically, no one on the planet should be without.
