Amazon Description
A young girl adjusts when her mother goes back to work. "A sparkling, humorous, contemporary picture book . . . text and illustrations are a perfect match."--School Library Journal.One Potato Review
This book is thirty-four years old, but is it any less timely, or are we simply more anxious these days about confronting the Terrible Thing that happened, and continues happening, every time both parents are forced to return to work? The clothes, the art, the mustaches in this book may bring back the seventies, but the candor works for every age.
