Review:

"Through chapters devoted to his mother, wife, daughter, aunts, teachers, friends, neighbors, and others (including Eleanor Roosevelt, novelist Harper Lee, actresses Michael Lerned, Jane Wyman and Patricia Neal and comdienne Minnie Pearl), this sweet, sentimental Mother's Day memoir from the creator of TV's 'The Waltons' is a reminder of the many ways benevolent females shape, nurture and inspire us all." --Neil Pond, American Profile Magazine, July 2007
