Tales from the Mom Front offers an insightful and engaging look at the early years of parenthood from the perspective of a first-time mother. Author and family therapist Rebecca Martorella chronicles her journey from pregnancy to preschool with a dose of realism and wit that reads like a conversation with a good friend.

Unlike advice books that outline what to expect from parenthood, Martorella shares the unexpected moments that have parents everywhere wondering, "is it just me?" Stories include:

  • Building Baby Furniture-The First Parenting Challenge
  • Breasts, Bottles, How Do You Work These Things?!
  • Family Vacation is an Oxymoron
  • First Date with the Babysitter
  • Eeek! Daddy's in Charge!

and more. She reveals her mistakes and victories and encourages parents to trust their instincts, laugh at their blunders, and release themselves from the pressure to be a "perfect" parent.

Tales from the Mom Front began as a newspaper column that earned praise from new and experienced parents and grandparents alike. Parents find a sympathetic voice in the author and are relieved to learn that they are not alone in their daily confusion and joy.
