About the Book

Each title in the Not Your Mother's Book series contains approximately 60 real-life stories dedicated to a unique theme, drawn from the passion and experience of dozens of writers in a whimsical and entertaining mix of irreverence and humor. Founded by former coauthors and editors of the Chicken Soup for the Soul series, this similarly styled anthology series foregoes the sad, sappy, preachy, or death-oriented stories that were that series' hallmark, and unlike that series, is never afraid to be a little risque. These stories are funny, daring, different, and smart. As the old saying about family goes: the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Genetics is the hand we are all dealt, and we have nothing to blame but our family lineage. The stories in this volume show that regardless of what limb we dangle from on the family tree, our roots play an important part in our everyday lives, from "Oh, crap!" moments to family squabbles, from daring adventures to dealing with a crazy aunt or uncle.
