...Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother by Amy Chua? Omg. I could not put this book down! I was both horrified and amazed by the way Amy chose to raise her daughters. Read it, it's amazing!
(By the way, the book was photographed on wrapping paper designed by my clever friends at Flowermill. I'll be doing a feature on them later this week and hosting a Flowermill giveaway too, so remember to pop back for the details...)
Hee hee Jen I am not expecting my winning streak to last! I haven't read the book but I have read an interview with Amy Chua, her parenting style is so totally at odds with mine and I felt so sorry for her kids! Lovely wrapping paper too (might not be able to resist entering the giveaway, just in case my luck holds...) x
I think Amy Chua is a brave woman to write that book. She must have known she'd be totally criticized... Hope you enter the giveaway - it wouldn't be the same without you :-) x
I'll check it out asap - sounds interesting. Looking forward to the giveaway, but suppose Rachel at Rainbow Vintage will win. haha! x
ReplyDeleteHa ha, wouldn't it be funny if she did :-)

DeleteNot read this yet, my brain is only coming back to me after having the kids, only just picking up reading again! Will check out the giveaway! Jo x
ReplyDeleteGeez, I don't think my brain has ever come back to me after having a child ;-)
