A Mommy's Road

One day I caught myself yelling at the girls:

“STOP YELLING!” Nothing happened, so I yelled louder.

Then all of a sudden I actually heard what I was saying.

As a lifelong storyteller and mom resource, Lori Koch realized her own experiences of

raising three girls could easily be used as a learning opportunity for other parents. Just as

adults read children stories to help them learn, Lori’s motto has always been that adults

learn best through stories. Her debut book is an effective teaching memoir that allows

parents to gain insight into parenting through relatable stories.

Lori bares the reality of her family life with three girls as uniquely opposite as three can

be. Included throughout A Mommy’s Road are helpful pop-out tips, and each chapter ends

with Lori reflecting on her own rearview mirror. During these reflections, parents have

the opportunity to see how Lori’s insight can be applied to their own road of parenting.

Parent Reader Reactions:

• I felt like I could relate to the problems in the book and use some of the solutions

in my own family! I look forward to re-reading it at future stages.

• At times all parents feel like throwing their hands in air, yelling, “What do I do

now?” (I think I actually did that!) Lori’s suggestions would have prevented some

of the bumps and bruises of parenting.—
