A Great Present for Mom5
This book is a very funny and realistic picture of well-meaning dads and kids trying to make Mother's Day a nice experience for mom. They do their best and touch Mama Bear's heart with their good intentions. But they do have their problems--don't we all? To err is human. This book may not conform to strict, politically correct, academic feminist standards but it's very real and down-to-earth and, best of all, it's funny.

Seriously Dated1
Modern moms and dads may take offense at this book's basic premise: Papa Bear is so useless in the kitchen that he burns toast and makes an awful mess while making Mama Bear breakfast. And Mama Bear is full of gratitude because Papa Bear and the cubs clean up the kitchen after they make a mess. I'd rather send kids a message that they can always help in the kitchen, not just once a year on Mother's Day.
