Here in Sweden, her Bridget series is quite popular... and I was so excited to find her book about mommy-burnout - When Owen's Mom Breathed Fire - which was perfect for my nephew Owen. My only comlaint is that the translations could be even better than they are, I think. In Swedish, the language has a bit more zing to it. Pija Lindenbaum is great!

I'm going to look for this one. Absolutely right! I’m so tired of pedantic books with pious little lessons about how being different is “fabulous,”, whether written by out celebrities or not.
