Book Description
Finally... A Children's Book For Working Moms. Can Mommy Go To Work? is the first children's book from writer Christine Michel Carter. A marketing professional and mother to two children, Carter wanted to write a book for other mothers who struggled with work life balance and felt guilty for wanting to further their career. The book features elephants not only because they're intelligent animals known for caring for their young, but also so families from all races can relate to the story. Can Mommy Go To Work? is called a children's book for working moms because Mommy is the main character, not her children. Through the book child readers will see "the other side of the story"- why their moms work so hard and the sacrifices their moms must make. Parents reading the book will feel understood, loved, and appreciated, and will most likely see themselves and their career path in Mommy. Even grandparents will appreciate the nod in Can Mommy Go To Work? to elder family members who help working parents with child care. As the author of Big Hair, Don't Care Crystal Swain-Bates says, there is power in reading about someone like you, and many moms wish they had books and experiences that matched their lives when they were growing up. Can Mommy Go To Work? gives the children of working mothers that book and that experience. It is a quick, easy to read children's book that the whole family can enjoy in the car on the way to school or at night before bedtime. About The Author: As a writer, speaker and consultant Christine works with advertising agencies, research firms and companies to ensure they're at the forefront of the minds of Black female and millennial mom consumers. She has been featured in, and guest contributed to several global digital publications, including TIME, The New York Times, Harper's BAZAAR, Parents, Health, Ebony, Women's Health. Christine regularly contributes to Forbes covering millennial moms in the workplace, diverse professionals and under 30 professionals and has interviewed a number of celebrity moms, including Tamera Mowry, Kristin Cavallari, and La La Anthony. Christine Michel Carter has been called "the exec inspiring millennial moms," a "branding mastermind" and "the voice of millennial moms." As an advocate for mothers and Black women, Christine has also helped Senator Kamala Harris promote the Maternal Care Access and Reducing Emergencies (CARE) Act and Black Maternal Health Week, advocated with Mom Congress for the Mothers and Offspring Mortality and Morbidity Awareness Act, the Modernizing Obstetric Medicine Standards Act of 2019, the Maximizing Outcomes for Moms Through Medicaid Improvement and Enhancement of Services Act, and the Quality Care for Moms and Babies Act, and supported the Congressional Caucus on Black Women & Girls.

Book Description
On November 4, 1990 Tim Boczkowski phoned 911 in Greensboro, North Carolina to report his wife Elaine lying motionless in the bathtub. In the days that followed the paramedics' failed efforts to revive Elaine, detectives began to suspect that Tim had murdered his wife after a quarrel. But with no eyewitnesses to the crime--the couple's three children were in bed asleep- -Tim went free to pick up the pieces of his life...

Mommy Goes to Work

Pages :
Book Description
More than 70 percent of women with children under the age of 18 work. And that's why I found it so astounding that when I searched for a book that explained to my toddler what I was doing all day after he was peeled from me, crying, at daycare, I couldn't find a thing.There was plenty out there about separation anxiety or going to school, but so little about what mommy did when she disappeared for the day. I had grown up without a role model for a working mother myself. Raised by a wonderful stay-at-home mom, I worried that I wouldn't know how to reconcile my career ambitions with my love for my family. Like many moms dissatisfied with what is available to them, I decided to make my own, and that's when I created Mommy Goes to Work. My goal is twofold: to facilitate the conversation between mother and child about what we moms are doing all day long in a relatable way, and to help employers signal to their employees that their workplace is family-friendly by giving them a copy of this book.I envision Mommy Goes to Work as a building block in your relationship with your child and with your colleagues and tribes. I hope it provides a conversation starting point where you can share with your little one the important things that you do all day when you're not with them--a foundation to be an incredible working mom role model. And I hope that it allows you to find your tribe of fellow working moms who will welcome you with open arms.
