This is a great topic and an easy read. While it is a one-trick book, the topic is so deep and varied that it can fill an entire book. A lot of managerial books that cover a single topic are often shallow and sometimes even fails to offer ways to correct the problems associated with the topic. That is not the case with this book. The author provides a clear, operational definition of a ...             Mom's Plan-it 2009 Engagement Calendar3 reviews Avalanche Publishing Company, 2008 AbSoLuTe BEST calendar around!!! This is the absolute best calendar around. I've been using this calendar for about 7 years now. I love the fact that it starts in August and goes through the following December, allowing me to match it up with the school year but shedding me some grace if I "forget" to get it in August or get too busy to start using it before school starts.

I switched from Mom's Family Calendar to Joan Goldner's Busy Body Book last year. Joan has created a "can't live without" product that is absolutely superior to your ordinary wall hanging calendar.
