“A great book for every parent in the world except me. I don't need it. My Melissa is a perfect child. And if she continues to be really nice to me, I'm going to tell her which of my jewelry is real.”—Joan Rivers “I love this book. It begins where Dr. Spock left off. If only Mama had had it. Eunice wouldn't be so aggravated.”—Carol Burnett “This is a brilliant idea! You, Gail, are the Mother of all Mothers. Why your boys, who are adults with children of their own, left home in the first place, I'll never know. Please adopt me so I can have the funniest mum in the world.”—Tracey Ullman
