A must read for Mommy Bloggers

Years ago, this was a text book for a class that I took on 'Women and Literature' or something like that. If I recall properly, the class was taught by Florence Howe, one of the co-editors of this book. As one of the few men in the class, I sometimes felt out of place, but it was a formative class for me. The class, and the book, celebrated all the aspects of women's work as written about by great female writers. It reminded me of all the beauty in the too often over looked aspects of women's lives. The book sits in an important place on the bookshelf next to me and I often refer to it, especially now that I have three daughters. Today, I grabbed the booko as I started writing a blog entry about 'mommy bloggers'. This is a book that every serious 'mommy blogger' should read.
