The Runaway Mother

By Carol Lynn Pearson

My be the truest Book I have ever read! So funny I was falling out of my chair, so sad even I needed a box of tissue! Loved every word! (and gave me hope for a brighter day!) If you are looking for a gift this is it!!!

Who should read it? Every mother who has ever felt un-loved! and any teenager who is giving a mother heck!

There ought to be better zoning laws, Alison is certain, to prevent a clearly inept mother like herself from living next door to the ward’s, and perhaps the world’s, most perfect mother. Alison decides—after the final straw has fallen on the camel’s back of her eternal maternal devotion—to run away from home for Mother’s Day weekend. Her plan is perfect until disaster strikes, tables turn, and she becomes the only one who can save the day. If you—or anyone you know—has ever felt like a second-rate mother, Alison’s story will let you breathe easier, laugh louder, and love a little longer.
