Book Description

Move aside Tiger Mom and forget Helicopter Parenting. Karmickids is the view from the other side of the fence – of laid-back parenting, of giving in to food jags, of making unstructured play time mandatory, and of not bursting a blood vessel when the grades are not what one might want to discuss in public. A roller coaster ride of love, laughter, and a few tears, Manral takes you through the beautiful chaos of the early years of parenthood. Written in a gently humorous style, this home-grown, hit-the-ground-running account of the madness of day-to-day parenting is peppered with anecdotes, reminiscences, a little practical advice and is a non-preachy, hilarious take on raising a spirited child while retaining one’s good spirits through it all.

There she forms an unlikely bond with a free-spirited Australian girl, a born adventurer who spurs Rachel on to a yearlong odyssey that takes her to three continents, fills her life with newfound friends, and gives birth to a previously unrealized passion for adventure.
