The Blessing of a B Minus, Wendy Mogel’s eagerly awaited follow-up to her New York Times bestseller The Blessing of a Skinned Knee, is due from Scribner this October. Quote are pouring in:
“Wise, witty and well-written, this book is a treasury of common sense for anyone dealing with adolescents.” —Rabbi Harold Kushner, author of When Bad Things Happen to Good People
“Wendy Mogel’s ability to make old wisdom new is uncanny. She is herself a wise woman. The parents of America – and therefore the children, too – should be grateful for her.” —Leon Wieseltier
“We should all give thanks for The Blessing of a B Minus. Like Wendy Mogel herself, this book is funny and full of common sense. It will give parents something they need: perspective on the complicated and often maddening business of raising adolescents.” —Michael Thompson, Ph.D., author of It’s a Boy: Your Son’s Development from Birth to Eighteen
“Wendy Mogel’s signature humor, humility and wisdom are back in full force in The Blessing of a B Minus, which will bring much-needed sanity to parents of teens. Hers is the voice that every parent dreams of finding while wading through the confusion of childrearing today: calm, knowing, empathetic and informed both by professional knowledge and personal experience. Her insights are infused with a widely appealing kind of faith that will strike a universal chord in parents seeking both a moral and practical compass. This is a book that will be re-read over and over again.” —Judith Warner, author of Perfect Madness and We’ve Got Issues
I’m so proud of Wendy!
