Judith Wolf Mandell has had a long, varied career as a journalist and publicist. She, her husband and Cockapoo live in Nashville, Tennessee in an angular, absurd-for-their-age three-story house. This book, her first, was inspired by her granddaughter's "Oh, No" fall that landed her in a cast for a mostly woeful month.
