Publisher's Synopsis
Allison tried to give 100% to her teaching career, 100% to raising teenagers, 100% to other relationships, and 100% to herself. You don't need to be a math genius to know it's impossible to give 400% of yourself, but that's what Allison kept trying to do. She thought if she could just be more organized and more productive, it would all go according to plan. It didn't. In this charming memoir-in-essays, Allison chronicles her adventures as an elementary school teacher and parent forever seeking the perfect day and finding joy in the imperfect ones.
