One of our listeners, Tim, issued us a challenge: Find books with kids that even Amy would like. Amy felt deeply seen.\\xa0

We accepted this challenge, and we're offering some books with outstanding offspring as characters. Along the way, Erin talks about her abilities as a stage mom, Amy reveals what age kids she would like to have, and we remember the time Erin got thrown out of a wrestling meet.\\xa0

P.S. Tim recommended a pick on this theme too! His pick is The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie, by Alan Bradley.\\xa0
