A Wonderful Book!
A literary treasure! My favorite story, "Caroline's Prince" by Inez Hollander Lake was beautifully written by a creative storyteller. The incredible stories in this book are funny, heartwarming, and endearing.

Mothers & Daughters Book Serves Cup of Love
Do you have an aversion to laughing and crying in a public place?
If so, seek a secluded spot to pore over the unforgettable stories editor Colleen Sell collected for A CUP OF COMFORT FOR MOTHERS & DAUGHTERS.
You can't prevent it. Your own heart becomes the setting for this uplifting anthology that celebrates the cherished bond between mothers and daughters.
Excellent story-teller Kristl Franklin reveals an innate secret shared between mother and daughter in "The Demise of Josephine." Humor softens a sad tale: "My kitchen looked like a band of monkeys had used it for survival training."
"Leaving" by Ramona John will also make you smile. "The first time I left my mother, I was five years old."....."I'm running away," I announced.
Lynn Ruth Miller, in "A Mother Knows," says a mother knows everything about you. "You can tell a true mother by the penetrating look in her eye."
In "Fashion Amnesia" Karen Favo Walsh, frustrated by failure buying clothes for her daughter, writes, "I am clueless about teenage fashion. It's a genetic flaw....."
Even if you skip about to find favorite stories sprinkled among the pages of this treasury, inevitably you'll read them all. This fourth installment in the Cup of Comfort series keeps its promise to touch, heal and inspire the reader.

Another Great Cup of Comfort
What can I say? The Cup of Comfort books bring a smile to my face and this new Mother and Daughters version is no exception. "To Love a Stranger" by Sande Smith tells of a daughter who is now playing the role of mother as she nurses her mother through Alzheimer's. Nancy Massand's "Time Out" is a wake-up about slowing down and smelling the roses with those you love and how a little girl's wisdom saves the day. I thoroughly enjoy "Tea for Two" by R. M Conner reunites a mother and teen-age daughter at odds. This is another heartwarming book. You just cannot get enough of these stories. Why not pick up a copy to give to your mother or daughter for Mother's Day?Dera Williams
