Whether or not you're not a Jewish mother (and I am) you'll love Mamaleh's wit, wisdom, and insight into parenting. If I were Marjorie Ingalls' mom? I'd be kvelling ! --Peggy Orenstein, author of Girls & Sex "Marjorie Ingall is such a winning writer that as you tear through her laugh-out-loud, warm-hearted book, you might not notice the deep wisdom it delivers -- not just on how to raise a mensch, but how to be one." --Gayle Forman, #1 New York Times bestselling author of If I Stay "The Helicopter Mom. The Tiger Mom. Mama Bear. Seriously, to hell with all of your click-bait Lines and Tigers and Bears. Oy vey! Instead, listen to Mamaleh, the brilliant Marjorie Ingall, who pulls no punches and tells it like it is in this winning romp through history, Judaism, and parenting norms. It goes super well with a bowl of chicken soup and a side of reality." --Deborah Copaken, New York Times bestselling author of The Red Book and Hell is Other Parents "What accounts for the outsized success of a people who have been marginalized, brutalized, and kicked around throughout history? Marjorie Ingall would argue that it's all mom's fault. Mamaleh is the best parenting book I've read. Ingall is ridiculously smart, and truly funny, offering modern advice that is grounded in thousands of years of tradition, full of ethical integrity, emotional authenticity, and chutzpah ." --Julie Holland, MD, author of Weekends at Bellevue and Moody Bitches "This wonderful, insightful and very funny book will help parents no matter if they're Jewish, Christian, atheist, Buddhist, Muslim, Zoroastrian or Norse pagans. Marjorie Ingall writes wisely about everything from education to money, from Albert Einstein to Bette Midler. Such nachas I have!" -- A.J. Jacobs, New York Times bestselling author of Drop Dead Healthy and The Year of Living Biblically " Mamaleh Knows Best is composed of equal parts of charm, humor and wisdom. It not only teaches how to raise children, but how to raise compassionate and enlightened adults." --Rabbi David Wolpe, author of David, The Divided Heart "Ingall's engaging guide will help parents, Jewish or not, navigate the jagged terrain of child-rearing with a hearty dose of confidence and laughter." -- Publisher's Weekly starred review, Whether or not you're not a Jewish mother (and I am) you'll love Mamaleh's wit, wisdom, and insight into parenting.
