Summary: Motherhood in the Real World
Review: "She's faster than a speeding toddler, more powerful than a teen-age temper tantrum, able to leap loads of laundry in a single bound!" Deb DiSandro wants to change the world one laugh at a time. She is a syndicated newspaper columnists and is famous for her "motherly misadventures." Her column is called "Slightly Off" and appears in (a local newspaper) every Tuesday. She has finally compiled a number of her famous columns into one book. These are stories mom's will relate to and can appreciate. This book is really a collection of humorous essays. For years Deb has perfected her comedy routine, which focuses on the many stages of motherhood. I was already laughing when reading the "contents" page. I love how she calls "holidays" something quite appropriate. The first line of the Introduction had me giggling and after that, I was just laughing through the entire book. The Contents Include: Battles Burbs, Bottles, and Binkies - Everything from labor to teaching phonics.
Toils with Tikes, Yikes! - Surprising information on brain shrinkage during pregnancy. Divides and Multiplies? - The author experiences the joys of reuse, reduce, and recycle.
Scores As Supersupporter - Karate and other kicking good ideas. Prevails Over Perils with Pets - "Mom's take care of dogs."
Duels in a Duo - Commitment or Committed? She tells all. Tackles the Teenage Years - A Tour of the Teen Brain!
Defends Time Alone - Food Channel fun and cooking blues. Survives the Holi-daze - An interesting "Grown-Up" Christmas wish, which shows even a supermom can have a warm cuddly view of how she wants Christmas to be. Ha, ha - you have to love the holiday letter. She saved the best till last. A comedians look at the real world of motherhood! This is truly the most creative Account of Motherhood on the SUPERMOM planet! Definitely 20 Stars!

Summary: A real rib-tickler!!
Review: Deb DiSandro made me laugh, and for this grandma brought back memories of my days of motherhood. In her essay, Bring Back Grandma's Beauty Shop, Deb gave me permission to take care of myself. I have been fortunate to have Deb as a writing instructor and have enjoyed her as a speaker. I could hear her voice through her words. And, as my daughter Susan in Portland, Oregon, shared, "I love Deb's book. She is hilarious and I can relate."

Summary: For Medicinal Purposes Only
Review: Someone once said, "Laughter is the best medicine." If that's true, then I've been healed. Deb DiSandro's book "Tale of a SLIGHTLY OFF SUPERMOM" had me in stitches.
She drew me into her zanny world and helded me captive.I smiled, I chuckled, and I laughed out loud. At times the stories she shared about her family brought nostalgic thoughts of my own family, and I, like Deb, longed to hold those memories tight and never let them slip away.
Here is a book that can bring a smile to Mom, on Mother's Day, a grin from Grandma, on her birthday, or laughter to any woman, who is about to face motherhood.
