Synopsis

A follow-up to the Good Wife and Good Husband Guides from CMP, The Good Mother’s Guide takes a tongue-in-cheek look at how the values of mothers in the 1950s seem oh, so strange to moms now.

This fun, retro volume shows moms how to maintain peace and prosperity for their familis - well, maybe not. Things like sending the little ones off to bed before hubby gets home so he won't have to be disturbed by them, making balanced meals every night and making sure everyone is at the table for dinner, and keeping herself looking good for him are portrayed in the kitchy light of their reality at the time. Warning: This is a gift between sisters and girlfriends who are moms or moms-to be.... It's a humorous gifts for moms-to-be, or currents moms, for Mother's Day or any day.
