Resumen del Editor

This program is read by the author.

The hilarious, irreverent Jen Dixon is class mom - again - for her son’s fifth-grade year, and a class bully, spin-teacher training, and her irresistible granddaughter keep her on her toes and perpetually in yoga pants.

The now beloved hero of Laurie Gelman’s Class Mom and You’ve Been Volunteered has a lot on her plate this year in Yoga Pant Nation - from childcare duties for her daughter’s two-year-old to her determined mission to become a spin instructor. When her husband’s ex-wife shows up to her first ever class as a full-fledged teacher - and compliments her performance! - she can’t help but wonder what the catch is.

Throw in a mandate from the PTA president to raise $10,000 for the fifth-graders’ new Chrome books and her daughter’s mother-in-law (whom no one has ever met) visiting for Christmas, and Jen is going to need more than her regular spin class to get her through the year. But as ever, humor is her best stress relief. Her acerbic emails to the class parents and friendly spars with her daughter over how organic is organic enough for baby food will have you laughing out loud and texting Jen’s best lines to your friends.

A no brain needed fun book to relax too

I have read all three of her books. I love the characters. Listening to the family grow and evolve is half the fun of this book. I think the author has the best sarcastic humor. I would definitely recommend this book as a summer read or a fall rainy day or a snowed in the house read should make you smile no matter what.

Loved revisiting these characters!

I read Laurie Gelman's first two books, so I was anticipating this one, and was not disappointed. I think this one may have even been funnier than the last one. I enjoyed revisiting these characters I've gotten to "know" and Laurie's witty sense of humor. I hope she writes more!

Lighthearted & relatable for moms

I absolutely loved the fun and relatable nature of Class Mom and was excited to find Laurie continued with You’ve Been Volunteered. This Monday, I woke in a mood, we’d been dumped with more snow, keeping kids home from school again and winter blues are in full force. I decided to see what I had on my wishlist but ended up seeing a suggestion for Yoga Pant Nation. I decided to start that hoping it would get me out of my funk and boy, it was exactly what I needed. I adore these characters and truly appreciate Jen’s dry and sarcastic humor. I also thoroughly enjoy listening to Laurie narrate her work.

Well done once again!

Yoga pants

I loved this story. I can see so much if my life in the words written by the author. I usually listen to my books on long car rides or walking the dog. So many times my husband has asked what’s so funny. Keep writing about life experience and I will keep listening

Sensational!!

I LOVE these books and crack up the entire time I'm listening...the writing is remarkable. The experiences are soooo relatable. My boys are now teenagers in high school, and her retellings transport me back to those earlier days volunteering at the boys school. YIKES!! Lol.

Please please please take us all the way through Max becoming and all the twists and turns of the family and friends along the way!! I know you have a life outside of writing...but hey we're all invested now!!

THANK YOU for your talent!

Excellent

This series is so fun, funny, and relatable. I cannot wait for book 4 to come out next summer!!!

FUN

Loved it. Easy, fun, relatable! I can't wait to start the next one. I want to be Jen's best friend 😂

Continue to enjoy these novels!

Light and funny with really interesting characters and real life situations, poignant ones along with very funny ones! Going to listen to the 4th one in the series right now!

Classroom mom must read

I love all her books in this series. The first was definitely the best but the two following are still very entertaining to read. As a former room mom I could relate to all her complaints and wish I had the guts to write her clever and witty room mom emails. Great beach read/listen and who doesn’t need a good laugh during the pandemic.

A fun, light read/listen

I love the series that Laurie Gelman has created. It’s been so fun to keep tabs on the characters in each phase of life. The monotony of these books is actually what makes them so relatable! I love the authors humor and I often laugh out loud when listening. With the craziness of our own lives, it’s nice to listen to something light and hilarious like this series.
