What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
My muse, Arlene, who co-wrote the “What to Expect” series with our daughter, Heidi Murkoff. Traveling with Arlene on her book tours, I met armies of moms and dads. And toddlers. Time spent at 30,000 feet is a great time to write, and I used it. So when Arlene toured for “What to Expect in the Toddler Years” she always introduced me five minutes into her lectures to read my fresh-off-the-747 toddler poems. Later, parents would come up to me and ask, “Where can I get the book?” I didn’t have one then. I do now.

Emily Postscript
Can’t find it in Miss Manners’ book
But I’ve a hunch
You should leave a very big tip
When you take a toddler to lunch.
