Raising a Parent: Lessons My Daughter Taught Me While We Grew up Together

ROCHELLE RILEY has been voted Michigan's Best Local columnist twice. Her new book is a collection of essays about the shared adventures, both riotous and poignant, of a mother and daughter as the daughter grows from pre-schooler to teenager.

From the first time she let go of her daughter's hand on the first day of school through her preparations for a daughter's first dance, Rochelle offers experiences that all parents live through, love through and sometimes just survive.
