Book Synopsis Don't Call Me Grandma! by : Ilene Leventhal
Download or read book Don't Call Me Grandma! written by Ilene Leventhal and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2015-11-12 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To most people, the very word grandma conjures up images of old, blue-haired women in a flower-print apron and wearing sensible shoes in the kitchen, baking cookies. But times have changed. In her book Don't Call Me Grandma! A Guide for the 21st-Century Grandmother, author Ilene Leventhal dispels the stereotype of the so-called typical grandmother. Today's grandmother is so much more. They are socially active and even text and e-mail. They bring a whole new definition of cool, proving once and for all that some things never go out of style. Don't Call Me Grandma! is a handbook for the new generation of grandmothers, as well as mothers and even mothers-in-law. Blue hair has been traded for younger cuts, our baking for trips for fun fast food, and the flower-print aprons for tennis skirts, matching tops, and cute boots. Don't Call Me Grandma! A Guide for the 21st-Century Grandmother shows how to break out of that "old" image, and still bake cookies if you want. You can become someone who knows how to relate to her grandchildren. Your grandchildren will never think of you simply as "grandma" ever again.

Book Synopsis Nobody Will Tell You This But Me by : Bess Kalb
Download or read book Nobody Will Tell You This But Me written by Bess Kalb and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2020-03-17 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: VOGUE • FORBES • BOOKPAGE • NEW YORK POST • WIRED “I have not been as profoundly moved by a book in years.” —Jodi Picoult Even after she left home for Hollywood, Emmy-nominated TV writer Bess Kalb saved every voicemail her grandmother Bobby Bell ever left her. Bobby was a force—irrepressible, glamorous, unapologetically opinionated. Bobby doted on Bess; Bess adored Bobby. Then, at ninety, Bobby died. But in this debut memoir, Bobby is speaking to Bess once more, in a voice as passionate as it ever was in life. Recounting both family lore and family secrets, Bobby brings us four generations of indomitable women and the men who loved them. There’s Bobby’s mother, who traveled solo from Belarus to America in the 1880s to escape the pogroms, and Bess’s mother, a 1970s rebel who always fought against convention. But it was Bobby and Bess who always had the most powerful bond: Bobby her granddaughter’s fiercest supporter, giving Bess unequivocal love, even if sometimes of the toughest kind. Nobody Will Tell You This But Me marks the creation of a totally new, virtuosic form of memoir: a reconstruction of a beloved grandmother’s words and wisdom to tell her family’s story with equal parts poignancy and hilarity.
Book Synopsis Against Certain Capture by : Miriam Wei Wei Lo
Download or read book Against Certain Capture written by Miriam Wei Wei Lo and published by 5 Islands Press. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Against Certain Capture fuses biography and poetry. It is an exploration of poet Miriam Wei Wei Lo's grandmothers' lives. It comprises two series of poems: the first focuses on the poet's Malaysian-Chinese grandmother, Liang Yue Xian; the second on the poet's Anglo-Australian grandmother, Eva Sounness.This book is as much an exploration of form as it is an exploration of lives: The poet plays with various free verse forms (including short and long line variants); experiments with the concrete possibilities of words on the page; and tests out the terza rima sonnet, the pantoum, and the headline forms. This is in contrast to Bernadine Evaristo's fusion of biography and poetry in the verse-novel Lara, which is much more uniform: being largely blank verse (mostly pentameter). At the time Lo wrote Against Certain Capture, Evaristo's Lara was the only book-length predecessor she could find that investigated ethnic hybridity in poetry.In spite of its formal diversity, Against Certain Capture is written uniformly in close third person. This means it occasionally blurs the line between fiction and non-fiction by depicting the thoughts and feelings of its biographical subjects. While these projections are based on extensive research (including interviews with the one grandmother who was still living; as well as a trip to China to interview the sisters of the deceased grandmother), they are still (largely) projections - imagined rainbows of personality that emerge from the granite of the biographical facts (to use Virginia Woolf's metaphors).The title of this book may lead some to think that this poet subscribes to the somewhat fashionable view that language lacks the capacity to sufficiently communicate meaning. While this poet does not claim the ability to communicate meaning in any absolute sense, she does believe in the possibility of communicating enough meaning for connection to be viable.
Book Synopsis Parentless Parents by : Allison Gilbert
Download or read book Parentless Parents written by Allison Gilbert and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2011-02-15 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parentless Parents is the first book to show how the absence of grandparents impacts everything about the way mothers and fathers raise their children--from everyday parenting decisions to the relationships they have with their spouses and in-laws. For the first time in U.S. history, as the average age of women giving birth has increased significantly, millions of children are at risk of having fewer years with their grandparents than ever before. How has this substantial shift affected parents and kids? Journalist, award-winning television producer, and parentless parent Allison Gilbert has polled and studied more than 1,300 parentless parents from across the United States and a dozen other countries to find out. Through her pioneering research, Gilbert not only shares her own story and the significant and poignant effect that this trend has had on her and hundreds of other families, but also the myriad ways these mothers and fathers have learned to keep the memory of their parents alive for their children, and to find the support and understanding they need.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warm cookies and milk are still okay, but what if they came with a workshop on goal setting or writing a business plan for the school year? Camp Grandma is full of innovative ideas that Marianne Waggoner Day, a highly successful businesswoman who became a committed and dedicated grandmother, modified from her working life in an effort to connect with her grandchildren. Along the way, she realized that in teaching her grandchildren, she in turn was learning some unexpected and invaluable lessons from them. Here, Day offers a new and refreshing perspective on grandparenting. Readers will be introduced to a compelling, sometimes humorous, and totally unexpected twist on a role people often take for granted—as well as enter into the larger societal conversation we should be having about the possibilities and value of grandparenting and how the women’s movement has reinvigorated and reshaped women’s approach to being grandmothers. Full of ideas and creative ways for grandparents to help their grandchildren grow strong, think critically, and have fun all at the same time, Camp Grandma reveals the importance of grandparenting and the value of passing on traditions, knowledge, and wisdom to the new generation. Babysitter? Not even close.
