It was becoming a grandmother. She was hit with a jolt of joy so intense and unexpected, she wanted to \"investigate\" it--as though it were a news flash. And so, using her \u003ci\u003e60 Minutes\u003c\/i\u003e skills, she explored how grandmothering changes a woman's life, interviewing friends like Whoopi Goldberg, colleagues like Diane Sawyer (and grandfathers, including Tom Brokaw), as well as the proverbial woman next door. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAlong with these personal accounts, Stahl speaks with scientists and doctors about physiological changes that occur in women when they have grandchildren; anthropologists about why there are grandmothers, in evolutionary terms; and psychiatrists about the therapeutic effects of grandchildren on both grandmothers and grandfathers. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThroughout \u003ci\u003eBecoming Grandma\u003c\/i\u003e, Stahl shares stories about her own life with granddaughters Jordan and Chloe, about how her relationship with her daughter, Taylor, has changed, and about how being a grandfather has affected her husband, Aaron. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn an era when baby boomers are becoming grandparents in droves and when young parents need all the help they can get raising their children, Stahl's book is a timely and affecting read that redefines a cherished relationship.","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48005874385085,"sku":"BS-TC0-185823","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0771\/9767\/2637\/files\/9780399185823-HD.jpg?v=1786937084","url":"https:\/\/boundigo.com\/products\/becoming-grandma-the-joys-and-science-of-the-new-grandparenting","provider":"Boundigo Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
