Sparkly Green Earrings {Review & Giveaway}

Sparkly Green Earrings is a memoir of a segment of Melanie Shankle’s life, from the time she and her husband Perry began to consider having a child to now, when Caroline is 8 years old and in elementary school and Melanie is in the throes of clothing debates, summertime road trips, and deciding when to get ears pierced. It’s an account of a difficult and complicated miscarriage, of toilet-training a toddler who has to be trained in order to advance at preschool, of the heartbreak of sending her off to kindergarten, of the joys of watching her daughter develop her own personality and way of looking at things.

Melanie is the author of the popular Big Mama blog, and many of you have already heard of her. Pop on over to 5 Minutes for Mom to read my full review and enter to win your own copy of Sparkly Green Earrings: Catching the Light at Every Turn.
