Customer Reviews

Really good!

Really good book. I did not go thro "Empty Nest Syndrome" even though I love my children. I felt guilty because I DIDN'T have a break-down and weep at the sight of their empty beds! This is the best book I have found on that very strange time of life, when one is no longer a fully time mummy. Loved it!

Helpful and Insightful
