The Dysfunctional Family Christmas Songbook
by Lenore Skenazy and John Boswell, 2004
From Amazon.com:
" Somewhere, someone is having a perfect Christmas, filled with chestnuts roasting and sleigh bells ringing…Screw ‘em.
Most of us are having just the opposite: a nutcrackin’ nightmare of anger, hurt feelings, evil in-laws, and carbs beyond counting. A time when grudges grow and gasses pass. A time of maxed-out credit cards and a ham that the vegetarians are ready to hurl through the frosty window.It’s that holidays that we celebrate here.
Evil little brothers, pregnant tattooed sisters, horny dogs, and cross-dressing dads–they’re all here, ready to spread their Christmas cheer. So untangle the lights, spill some eggnog, and gather ‘round the place where happier families would have a piano. Now prepare to enjoy all the carols you love–with new lyrics you’ll love even more. “O Holy Fight,” “Silent Wife,” and “Grandpa Fell” (the ballad of Gramps and his bourbon, set to the tune of “Jingle Bells”). Yes, all your old favorites are here, with words that express, at last, the true sentiments of the season. Remember: We wish you a Merry Christmas! But we can’t guarantee it." |

"I Owe You, Mom" Coupon Book: 52 Little Ways to Show I Love You Big-Time
by Lenore Skenazy and Carole Boswell, 2006
From Amazon.com:
"Dear Mom,
Most kids -- even old ones -- find it hard to articulate just how much their mothers mean to them. But me...I'm worse. There's no way I'll ever be able to tell you how incredibly important you are to me, how encouraging you've been, how much I (despite some immature eye rolling now and then) truly respect you.
So I went and bought this book. There are a lot of things I would like to do -- things I haven't done nearly enough, like treat you to tacos, show you how to use your digital camera, borrow some money....
Oh, wait! That's not in here. Anyway, what I really mean is simply this:
Mom, I love you. I owe you. And I want to show you how much. So tear out a coupon and let's get started!"
