Happy Wife, Happy Life: Confessions of a Suburban Mom

Tracy Beckerman’s kids have flown the coop, which has left her plenty of time to further settle into the happy life of a happy wife to a loving husband. Flowers are blooming, tails are wagging ... and the ducks are on the verge of a hostile takeover.

In this collection of top hits from her nationally syndicated column, “Lost in Suburbia,” Beckerman forges a path through the blissful chaos of her idyllic life in suburban New Jersey. She somehow manages to keep her cool despite an unending wave of dining disasters, awkward conversations with the doctor’s office receptionist, and the horrors of *gasp* aging!

Beckerman lays it all out with the refreshing honesty, humor, and sage advice that you’d expect from your best friend in the ‘burbs.

“Cool suburban mom” is not an oxymoron. Sharp, witty, and irreverent, Beckerman will have you rolling with laughter and checking your toilet paper supply.
