Synopsis

If you like SMALL ADMISSIONS by Amy Poepell or CLASS MOM by Laurie Gelman you will love this novel about super mommies, private schools, and getting your worst moment plastered across the internet.Her mommy meltdown is seen around the world! When Quinn Barrett’s son refuses to wear his hand-crafted costume to the Little Wonders Preschool Happy Halloween Parade and Dance Party she loses it -- complete with stomping, screaming, and costume-destruction galore. Not her best day. And caught on viral video.   Yep, “Halloween Mom” is now internet famous. The posting culprit: tattooed, blue-haired, west-coast transplant Daisy McGulch, out of place in the posh New England town and unable to blend with the other perfect mommies of Little Wonders Preschool. While she couldn’t care less about organic snacks (paleo-preferred) or the winter quarters of the Little Wonders chickens, she’s not about to admit she’s the one who accidently brought Quinn’s worst moment to the entire world—she’d be kicked out of town!But when Quinn and Daisy find themselves unlikely cohorts in the fight for Little Wonders Parents Association supremacy, they also discover they have more in common than they expected…but the internet is forever.  Can Quinn live down her new reputation?  And how far will Daisy go to keep the truth from coming to light? Hilarious, clever, and unforgettable, Little Wonders offers a glimpse into the high-pressure world of modern momming, with natural toys, scrutinized playdates, PTA politics, and social media gone amok.

I have to say, even as a non-mother I am completely hooked on these witty, laugh-out-loud books that give a glimpse into the chaotic mommy-world where perfection is demanded but impossible to achieve. Little Wonders by Kate Rorick is a complete delight to read, and a perfect book right now as we are......more

Quinn Barrett's mantra is about being perfect. But that all crumbles when she's caught on camera at the Little Wonders Preschool Halloween parade screaming at her young son, Hamilton, and destroying his (you guessed it) perfectly-created spaceship costume. As president of the Little Wonders board, a......more

Goodreads review by Amy on April 10, 2020

Admittedly I’m drawn to over the top, train wreck type of drama, whether that’s in a book, tv show or a movie and if there’s a side of sarcasm and sharp wit, I’m even more intrigued. Who’s with me? I know most of y’all loved Tiger King and couldn’t get enough of the drama. While Little Wonders isn’t......more

Goodreads review by Nanette on April 19, 2020

This is a book that every Mom entering the world of parental involvement in school should read. It has a few characters that we can all relate to.
