How to Raise Your Parents
Sarah O’Leary Burningham visits Books&Co. at the Greene this Wednesday, April 30 at 7pm to introduce her new book How to Raise Your Parents - A Teen Girl’s Survival Guide (Chronicle Books).
Sarah decided to write this book when she was 16 and her parents busted her for a curfew violation. It became obvious at the time neither Sarah or her parents had a clue how to proceed with punishment or whatever. The seed for this book was planted that night.
Sometimes it takes a while for a book to grow. Sarah is a few years older now and she decided it was time to write it. It is a fun (and helpful) book!
Disclaimer: I know Sarah. She works in publishing. I have known her since she worked for Miramax Books, an imprint that no longer even bears that name. In fact, I remember when Sarah worked for a really famous publisher. I won’t mention the name but they no longer exist. My point? I think Sarah is one of the really fine people in publishing. She does a great job and she did a wonderful thing putting together this book.
Go out and see her this Wednesday at the Greene.
