Book Reviews of The Granny Diaries: An Opinionated How-To Guide
Book Review: Every New Grandmother;s book
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a MUST for all new grannies and also a fantastic book for not new grannies.I laughed my head off. I have two granddaughters, one who is 3 months old, and it gave me a lot of insight and a lot of laughs. It is worth every penny. BUY IT!! It is even helpful and hilarious if you have friends with new babies. It is a different world than it was when we had babies in the 70's.
Summary of The Granny Diaries: An Opinionated How-To Guide
This delightful guide gives new grandmas clear direction on how to navigate foreign territory. Celebrated columnist Adair Lara advises on how to choose a decent name (Oopsie? Boopsie?). She outlines how to give advice without getting a Dr. Sears guide chucked at the head. She offers wise counsel on how to stay on the parents' good side (hint: don't say anything, ever). Hilarious in its blunt truisms, The Granny Diaries steers around the shoals of grandma sentimentality. And yet, having fallen madly in love with her own grandchildren, Adair affirms that the years after the big G truly are golden.Satire, Classic Books
