“Equal parts celebrity memoir and musings on the evolving role of women in society. . . . Fascinating. . . . Entertaining.” - New York Times Book Review
“A much more personal, anecdotal approach. . . . She has a disarming style . . . the perfect combination of powerful feelings and a modulated style.” - Los Angeles Times
“Packed with intelligent, energetic women, Roberts’ sisters by blood or by choice, and ‘superwomen’ in the corridors of social change. . . . Easy, lively reading. She’s a nurturer, a custodian of time-honored values, an accomplished professional and, in this book, simply, wisely proud to be so.” - USA Today
“Communication is the focus of Cokie Roberts’ book of inspirational stories of women who have successfully nurtured their children while working outside the home. With humor, honesty and optimism, she provides perspective on this balancing act.” - Newsday
