This utterly charming illustrated volume about growing into being a mom - the ups, downs and absurd in-betweens - arose out of a poignant connection new motherhood gave the cartoonist to her own mom, who died when Climo was 22. "I could feel how much my daughter loved me," she writes.

FEATURED
Aleksandra Jassem and Nikita Stanley, Canadian authors of The Rebel Mama's Handbook for (Cool) Moms, share Mother's Day gifts new moms actually want.
F*ck bubble baths-what moms really need is someone to show them a clear-cut path to economic freedom. That's the real self-care. Y ou're pregnant. Holy f*ck. You exit the bathroom, tell your partner the happy news and enjoy a private celebration.
People seem to have a painfully hard time keeping their mouths shut when it comes to others' parenting decisions. The authors of The Rebel Mama's Handbook for (Cool) Moms don't get caught up in that. At this point, you may still be blissfully unaware of all the drama that plagues mommy groups , both on- and offline.

For those of you who are not familiar with the concept, the Facebook "mommy group" is the place where modern moms turn to ask their most pressing questions (is it normal that my kid hasn't poo'd in 6 days??), to share funny memes (usually about either coffee or wine or both), to bitch about their husbands (could he BE any more useless?), to get dinner inspiration (what do I feed my gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetable-hating 1-year-old?), and often, to judge the shit out of each other.
