It's not very often I get my hands on an important book, but Blending Families, by Elaine Fantle Shimberg, is just that. If you are about to become part of a blended family, if you are already dealing with making a new family unit work while trying to retain some structure in the old one, GET THIS BOOK NOW!

I have rarely been so impressed by a problem-solving author's ability to map out a workable way to live, but Shimberg gets my vote. Nancy

Not Much Just Chillin', by Linda Perlstein, is a look into the real lives of early teens. True insight into the minds of our kids is rare and valuable. Nancy

"Traveling with children is like traveling third class in Bulgaria." Robert Benchley

more quotations

For years, I was a believer in Benchley, seeing even a trip to the mall as a trek to darkest demonia. Now, when my children are finally taller than I am, Brenda Elwell has written The Single Parent Travel Handbook. It's too late for me, but whether you're a single parent or not, get a copy of Elwell's book before you set off on another family adventure. The book is packed with good and useful stuff - from tips to touring. I truly recommend it. Nancy
