Rating: Summary: Not for non-theists Review: I actually was disappointed in this book, because it has a pretty heavy emphasis on theism, and "G-d led me here".As a non-believer, it created an automatic distance between the material presented and myself, because I couldn't identify with the author, who attributed many things about motherhood directly to her belief in G-d. Anyways, for a person of a closer mindset to her, it might be a good fit for a book, but for me, it just left me grasping for some commonality, and not finding much. I would go as far to suggest that the book jacket really should have more of an outright mention of the spiritual bent of the book, because then a more appropriate audience could choose to read it.
Rating: Summary: great book for new moms Review: I received this book as a gift when my baby was two months old. The first section on Mother Love in the Mother's Life were very encouraging during the early months of motherhood. The second part of the book describes how important Mother Love is for your child. If you are thinking about staying home with your children, this book gives some amazing reasons for doing so.
Rating: Summary: "Powerful" Book Review: Wow. The author really shows us the incredible influence a mother's love has on the life and development of her child. With tenderness, compassion for us less-than-perfect moms, yet with conviction, she speaks to all moms in all situations about recognizing the power their love and prescence have on their children's lives. You will never again take for granted the time you spend with your children, and if you "surrender to the power of mother love" in 15 or 20 years you will look back and be ever so glad you read this book.
