This book is so refreshing. A must for woman who are both artists and mothers. Or woman who are not yet participating in their artistic side. Buy it for your artist friends that are pregnant so that when they give birth, they will have the perspective that you not only can, but must nurture that artistic part of yourself. This book not only affirms but provides helpful advice to the artists, writers, playwrites, acting teachers , who, now that they are a mother, should stop their 'nice creative hobbies" and be a mother. Ms Hubbard's Big Purple Mommy says in order to BE a great mother, you need to honor the whole of your artistic being.
Great!

An amazingly honest and helpful book about mothers trying to be true to their own creative careers while also being fully committed to raising great kids. Although most helpful to women in the arts, it should be read by (or given to) any woman trying to balance nurturing themselves and their own work with nurturing their children. Great for book clubs.
