"Maggie is earthy and real, full of love and knowledge, especially on raising sons." - Steve Biddulph "Maggie's perspective on raising boys is spot on. She writes with humor and depth, providing insight and strategies for many of the most important issues facing moms. There is a lovely ease to her writing and a powerful honesty. I hope every mother of a son (and everyone else!) will read this book. The future of the world, to a great extent, depends on how we raise our boys." - Michael Gurian, New York Times Bestselling Author of The Wonder of Boys and Saving Our Sons If we can see the world through boys' eyes a little better, we will make different choices in the way we mother them... and we will find them less confusing, and love them more deeply. Mothers of sons are worried about raising their boys in a world where negative images of masculinity are front and centre of our media, almost every day. Not only that, but statistically our boys are still struggling in many ways. Even though we live in a time where we recognise that nothing in gender is fixed, it remains a fact that the influence of a mother on her son is massive. A mother of four sons herself, Maggie Dent draws on her personal experience - and over four decades work as a teacher, counsellor and now author and speaker - to help build understanding, empathy and compassion for our boys. Maggie shares her five key secrets that every mum needs to know and uses the voices of men she has worked with and surveyed to reveal what really matters in a boy's relationship with his mother and other mother figures. Maggie is one of Australia's most popular parenting authors and educators, and her seminars about boys have sold out all across Australia and in the UK. She is finally sharing her insights, her reflections, and (as always) her humour around mothering boys to help you be the mum your son needs you to be.

In 1962, author Kathleen Rawlings Buntin and her husband, Carmon, got married for all the right reasons. She liked his eyes, he liked the way she looked in a sweater, and they both liked tacos. In The Pig in the Kitchen, Buntin narrates how she married a modern-day Huckleberry Finn, a man who was perpetually twelve going on forty-two. She tells how she, as a city girl, spent most of her life on a minifarm in Arizona. Sharing stories from twenty years of her life in a veritable petting zoo, Buntin introduces Tanya, the gun-shy bird dog; Dot, the tail-swatting milk cow; Arnold, the pig in the kitchen; and dozens of other animals, domesticated and otherwise. Erma Bombeck once said, There is a thin line that separates laughter and pain, comedy and tragedy, humor and hurt. The Pig in the Kitchen walks that thin line with compassion and grace and a lot more humor than hurt as one family experiences twenty years of love, laughter, and animals.
