Summary: A Must Read For Any Age
Review: Valerie Harper's Today I am a Ma'm is a must read for all ages. Valerie sets forth the many feelings and thoughts that we all have as age creeps upon us and all of a sudden we realize "Hey what happened? I was just 21 years old". The younger generation could serve well to read it also and realize what Mom is up against and that their turn will also come. I've re-read Valerie's book at least 7 times. It is written not to emphasize what is happening in a negative way - but to make light of what could be traumatic to some. I URGE anyone who needs a light approach to growing older to read it. It just doesn't get any better than this. And to Valerie I say thank you so much for giving us a "smiling approach to aging".

Summary: A TON OF LAUGHS FROM A REMARKABLE PERSON!
Review: Who wouldn't remember Valerie Harper, television's sweetheart who played Rhoda on the Mary Tyler Moore Show. This book is a barrel of laughs from a lady who may be in her 60's but at heart she is still as youthful and vibrant as ever. Taking a poke at everything from self-help books that profess to make you an eye-stopping cover-girl at fifty, to menopause, weight gain and ageing, you will admire this incredible lady's wit and style. She is just as vivacious and high-spirited as ever. Valerie Harper is the kind of person one would love to have as a friend and next door neighbour; she would certainly know how to make your spirits soar when you are having a bad day.

Ms Harper has always had a knack for saying whatever was on her mind, and it was her tongue-in-cheek humour that we remember from her Rhoda days. Now, as a lady still young at heart, she pours her unique combination of creative talent and sheer, natural ability into this series of essays. The only downside, dear Valerie, is that the book was far too short, and we know you were never one to be short on words. Just as we get into the ambiance and humour... the book comes to an end.
