About the Book

In this rollicking and poignant narrative about the beauty and mess of everyday parenting life in all its stages, readers are immersed in stories that reflect pieces of their own lives-perfect for fans of Anne Lamott's Operating Instructions and Jennifer Senior's All Joy and No Fun. This is not a book about how to parent. Instead, this is a book about being one. In a uniquely fresh and honest voice, Sue Dvorak-herself a mother of six grown children-captures the minute details and full emotional arc of parenthood. In essays, poetry and vignettes that are at once humorous and heartbreaking, Dvorak brings to life the many stages of parenting along with their accompanying joys and indignities, from babyhood to graduation and beyond, when roles reverse and adult children begin to care for their own aging parents. Encompassing a full mosaic of the weird, joyous, banal, sickening and hilarious moments of everyday parenting life, Apparently celebrates the wonder of being a parent, growing and learning alongside your children. This is what parenting feels like.

About the Author :
Sue Dvorak is a small-town girl who moved to the city, becoming a physiotherapist, a wife and a mother-eventually of six. Spending years wrestling with her children and the goal of living in the moment, Sue has a fondness for involving herself in things that tend not to pay but are otherwise rewarding. She lives in British Columbia with her husband, Marcel, an orthopaedic spine surgeon. Their children are the sort of people you'd lean on in a bind.

Review :
"Libraries and new parents may have other childrearing guides on hand-but none will hold the perfect blend of personal experience and childrearing tools profiled in Apparently." -Midwest Book Review "Rich in raw emotions, the book captures the highs and lows of parenting well. . . . conversational, sympathetic, and inquisitive throughout. . . . Apparently acknowledges and celebrates the unpredictability of being a parent." -Foreword Reviews
