She shields her children from nightmares, then encourages them to chase their dreams. "She" is a mother, and now there is a book written especially for and about her.


Chicken Soup for the Mother's Soul pays tribute to motherhood - the universal calling that requres the skills of a masster mediator, mentor, cooka nd counselor. These heartwarming stories celebrate the defining moments of motherhood from the triumphant to the trivial: from giving birth to developing a mother's intuition, from making special memories and surviving family life to letting go. Whether you are an expectant mother, a grandmother or you appreciate the maternal influence in your life, you will laugh, cry and reflect upon joys and difficulties of being a mom.

From stories about moms-next-door to celebrity contirbutions from Barbara Bush, Reba McEntire, Joan Rivers and Erma Bombeck, the book relates shining examples of a mother's love that are cherished forever in the hearts and lives of the people they touched.
