PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Sarah Macdonald is an ABC journalist and radio presenter, and author of the international bestseller Holy Cow. For many women in their 40s and 50s they came of age listening to her host the Morning Show on Triple J. Sarah co-hosts the storytelling event and comedy podcast 'The Full Catastrophe' with Rebecca Huntley. She has two terrific teens who would say this book is 'fully sick' but they refuse to read it. Cathy Wilcox is a cartoonist for the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age, for which she has drawn since 1989, as well as illustrating numerous children's books, collecting three Walkley Awards and some Children's Book Council commendations for her work along the way. She is the mother of two children who have almost made it through the teenage years, and one eternally childlike dog.
'I love my kids with a primal passion but when they hit puberty I wanted to hand them back for a refund. If only I'd had this witty, gritty owner's manual. It's a pithy, practical guide for all deranged parents.' KATHY LETTE 'I wish I'd read this book before I acquired the three teenagers I have. Very useful.' CRAIG REUCASSEL 'This book should be compulsory reading for teenagers, but since they already know everything, I highly recommend it for their parents instead.' DEE MADIGAN 'The only thing worse than lecturing teens, is lecturing their parents. This book avoids the pitfalls of many parenting books by deftly mixing the right amount of research and evidence, with laugh-out-loud humour, a huge dose of empathy and strategies that aren't bossy or complex. Sarah and Cathy beautifully articulate the frustrations and stresses of modern parenting and provide a reassuring reality check on how to navigate the choppy waters of raising teens in an always-on, screen-obsessed world.'
