MOB RULE: LESSONS LEARNED BY A MOTHER OF BOYS
Book ID/图书代码: 02000012B56716
English Summary/英文概要: You know you’ve joined the MOB when you hear...’My, are they all yours?’ ’Bless you!’ (Occasionally) ’Poor you!’ (Frequently) ’Lucky you!’ (Once) And of course, the ultimate: ’So ...are you going for a girl?’ Hannah Evans has three small boys. In her world, farting is so much more interesting than phonics, dam-building trumps damsels in distress any day and, astonishingly, she now instinctively knows the difference between a Frontloader and a JCB. It’s a world of mud - and just occasionally blood - sweat and tears. It is also a world of indescribable joy. MOB Rule is the funny, honest and eye-opening account of Hannah’s experiences as a Mother of Boys. Supplemented by recipes, quizzes, mnemonics and mysteries, it is the indispensible book for anyone who finds themselves adrift on a sea of testosterone, wondering when the lifeboat is going to show up. You may be outnumbered, your face may be frazzled and your toe-nails black and bare, but know that, far from being alone, you’re part of a very special club. Welcome to ...the MOB!
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 本书的作者Hannah Evans生了三个小男孩。养育三个男孩的经历可谓尘土飞扬,眼泪与汗水齐飞,有时还会见血……但这个过程也充满了难以名状的喜悦。作者在本书中将自己作为男孩们母亲的经历描绘得有趣而真实,令人大开眼界。书里还附有不少食谱、小测试、记忆术和小诀窍。对于那些具有相似经历,同样漂浮在睾丸激素海洋中期待救生艇出现的读者来说,本书是不可或缺的。你可能觉得自己寡不敌众,可能显得疲惫不堪,你的手指甲和脚趾甲可能又脏有粗糙,但是你很清楚自己一点也不孤单,你属于一个非常特别的俱乐部——欢迎来到“男孩妈妈俱乐部”!(LYR)
Awards/获奖情况:本书深刻描绘了养育男孩们的挑战、曲折与乐趣……让我捧腹大笑。如果你也是男孩们的妈妈,你一定会喜欢这本书。(Mother & Baby)
Gives an insight into the challenges, dramas and fun of raising boys ... had me in stitches. If you’re a mum of boys, you’ll love it (Mother & Baby)
About the Author/作者介绍: Hannah Evans是三个小男孩的妈妈,还是Bloomsbury的作家。她现在住在德文郡,对足球依然知之甚少,不会冲浪,也不懂如何操办盛大的野餐。
她的处女作《男孩妈妈法则:如何管教男孩们》被形容为“拥有类似处境的读者们有趣而翔实的‘圣经’”(Angels & Urchins),能够让男孩子的妈妈们“在购买生日礼物时加倍轻松。”任何能够让生活更轻松的东西都值得推荐给大家。
Hannah Evans is, in no particular order, a Forces’ wife, a mother of three small(ish) sons and to her surprise and delight, a Bloomsbury author. She lives in sometimes sunny Devon where she specialises in knowing astonishingly little about football, being incapable of kneeling (let alone standing up) on a surf board and making enormous picnics.
Her first book, ’MOB Rule: Lessons Learned by a Mother Of Boys’ has been described as a ’funny and informative bible for anyone in a similar position’ (Angels & Urchins) which apparently ’makes birthday present buying for MOB friends a ton easier’. And anything that makes life easier can only be good.
