"You might be wondering about the title. It's comes from something that
Corrigan's mother said about their family: "Your father's the glitter
but I am the glue." This is a memoir of being a young nanny in many
ways, but it's also a good meditation on mothers, mothering, and family
dynamics. It's touching and baldly honest--Corrigan doesn't hold much,
if anything, back. I saw a lot of me and my mother in this book (and
did some cringing at the memories), but mostly I truly enjoyed the book
and strongly recommend it to anyone who ever had a mother."

Just a reminder: Kelly Corrigan will be at our Highland's Ranch store at 7:30 pm on Wednesday, Feb. 19, 2014. It's free and open to the public. Grab all the mother's you know and bring them there!
