Negative Positive
Title: Practical and Personal
Review: This is a short and easy book to read, a personal account of a mother's experiences on a variety of subjects--childbirth, returning to work, handling TV use, managing summertime activities, choosing day care, dividing housework, getting to church on time--plus a whole lot more. David discusses the need for role changes between women and men, especially when children come along. She sensitively deals with a mother's needs for other work and personal time, as well as her concern to meet her child's needs. Her stories include examples of parents as partners. The tone is warm, personal, humorous and practical.Such a wide ranging introductory book may help the reader choose topics for more in depth exploration in other sources. It is gratifying to see a Christian publishing firm finally start meeting the needs of real Christian families.(This review was previously published in "Daughters of Sarah" Jan/Feb 1986.)
