I’ve always said that my recently published book, SAVVY AUNTIE: The Ultimate Guide for Cool Aunts, Great-Aunts, Godmothers and All Women Who Love Kids (Morrow/HarperCollins) is more than a book, it’s a movement. The book represents and celebrates the nearly 50 percent of American women who are not moms but who love a child in their life….

As you may recall, a DebutAunt is what we call a first time aunt. So when it came time for a party to celebrate the release of my first book: Savvy Auntie: The Ultimate Guide for Cool Aunts, Great-Aunts, Godmothers and All Women Who Love Kids (Morrow/HarperCollins), I couldn’t think of a more appropriate name to call it than The DebutAunt Ball!

I am thrilled to introduce you to PepsiCo’s corporate-wide women’s initiative called PepsiCo WIN, or the PepsiCo Women’s Inspiration Network….

I thank Corolle for making magical gifts for us to give our nieces (and nephews) and for sprinkling a little magic on Savvy Auntie too…

My book, SAVVY AUNTIE: The Ultimate Guide for Cool Aunts, Great-Aunts, Godmothers and All Women Who Love Kids, will be released on Tuesday, April 26th! And I’m offering THREE things to do in your honor if you order the book through April 27th, 2011!

I share some incredible early praise for my first book: Savvy Auntie: The Ultimate Guide for Cool Aunts, Great-Aunts, Godmothers and All Women Who Love Kids
