Looking for real life stories? You'll find them here. Working Parent continues the adventures of two writers raising gifted twins, that began in the popular book No Parent Is An Island. On the farm or bouncing like ping-pong balls in Grandma's basement, this family is always busy. Author Paula Johanson has calluses from farming and from writing these stories and a stack of nonfiction books.
As Paula writes: After reading a review of notebook computers, I knew I wanted the portable qualities of a notebook. So I bought one. Spiral bound, five subject dividers and lined paper. I can even take it to the pool and write fiction or reviews while my kids take swimming lessons. It works. So do I.
Doublejoy Books is pleased to present his book as a long-awaited sequel to No Parent Is An Island, by popular request. Working Parent is the second book in the series Slice of Life. The series goes on with Under The Plow, a collection of Johanson's popular op-ed columns for a rural newspaper.
Paula Johanson chronicles the adventure of parenthood with wry wit and ironic accuracy.
