Description

A NEW YORK TIMES best seller!

"Empty bladder before reading." -Laurie Notaro, New York Times bestselling author of The Idiot Girls’ Action-Adventure Club

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY: "This sincere, laugh-out-loud confessional from Turner candidly reveals and revels in the flaws and dysfunctions of the author and her family. Turner is not afraid to voice her private thoughts and never takes herself too seriously. She details her pregnancy and child-rearing techniques in a refreshingly honest way. The book is lighthearted and riddled with comedic episodes that young mothers in particular will relate to and enjoy." 

“At last . . . a kindred spirit. AK Turner finds the funny—strike that—the hilarity in life’s everyday circumstances. Her candid yet heartwarming look at parenting is a master class in authenticity and just plain fun.” -Joely Fisher, actress, singer, and author of Growing Up Fisher

"A.K. Turner is always hilarious, and she doesn't disappoint." --Jen Mann, New York Times bestselling author of People I Want to Punch in the Throat

From The Quivering Pen: “Did Erma Bombeck ever guzzle vodka? If she did, she might have come close to the ribald domestic humor in Turner’s ‘momoir’ This Little Piggy Went to the Liquor Store.”

“AK Turner’s witty essays explore the raw realities of raising children so they won’t become serial killers, how to deal with dinner guests who proudly arrive with tater tot casserole, and how to survive when you accidentally poop your pants more than your kid does.” -Elaine Ambrose, Midlife Happy Hour

“It’s rare for a writer to actually make me laugh out loud, but AK Turner does just that.” -Robin O'Bryant, New York Times bestselling author of Ketchup Is a Vegetable and Other Lies Moms Tell Themselves

“I laughed out loud . . . but make no mistake, this book is equally heartfelt and humorous as AK Turner delves into all the wonders, challenges, and horrifying playground moments of parenting— the most extreme sport there is.” -Cameron Morfit, Sports Illustrated

"Reading This Little Piggy Went to the Liquor Store is like going to your neighbor's house for a play date and discovering that she's just as clueless and crazy as you are." -Stacy Dymalski, Confessions of a Band Geek Mom 

“AK Turner is the best friend that we dream of having: someone who is smart and eloquent and doesn’t take herself or her life too seriously. That is what makes all of her books so fabulous, you can’t help but envision yourself right alongside of her, cheering her on, laughing out loud, and thanking your lucky stars that you have her in your life.” -Lynn Morrison, The Nomad Mom Diary
