Cute Little Book of Wise Sayings

Did you ever wish you'd written down the words of wisdom from your mother? Do you sometimes hear those words in your head when you're facing a problem, working on a relationship, or making an important decision?

Gathered here are just such phrases and sayings - some of them polished nuggets of gold, some of them diamonds in the rough.

However they strike you, discover these jewels of wisdom in the homey, comforting voices of  What Our Mamas Taught Us.

Meet the Author:

Dr. Linda Seger is a noted speaker and author and the founder of script consulting as a career. She has authored 13 books on various topics. She holds three M.A. degrees and has a broad religious background. She has encouraged the empowerment of women's wisdom for most of her life. 


My Take:
This is a very small pocket size book that holds alot of insight and wisdom passed down through generations. Linda has compiled sayings from her mother, aunts, grandmother and even herself in the pages of this book.  

They sayings are divided into categories, such as Children, Religion, Problems, each beginning with a beautiful illustration in a picture frame illustrated by Linda Crawford. To be honest, not very many of these sayings were familiar to me, so they must not have been the things my mom said. But they did make sense, although I cannot confirm that I agree with them all. 

This book is a great start to get you thinking of your own favorite sayings that have been passed down through the years. It is a super quick read! What a great idea to pass those words of wisdom down to our children and future generations. 

I received a copy from the author via The Book Club Network to review. All opinions are my own and I was not asked to review positively.

My Body's Mine helps children learn they have the rights to their body. Told through rhyme from a child's point of view this book on boundaries empowers each child to say no when others approach them in ways that make them uncomfortable. It also gives clear instructions on what to do if they are approached in an unwanted manner. The questions at the end of the book provides an easy transition for counselors and parents to open a discussion to prevent abuse or to further explore if abuse has occurred.
