From cradle to stage: stories from the mothers who rocked and raised rock stars / Virginia Hanlon Grohl, 239 pgs.
Reading about Dave Grohl over the years, you get the sense that he is someone who knows how to have fun. He is well known for mentoring younger musicians and showing up for tributes and ceremonies. Reading this book, you figure out right away where he gets this from. His mom is also tons of fun and has written about meeting other mother's of famous musicians from Kelly Clarkson's mom to Dr. Dre's mom. It is really fun to read about these women, most of whom are impressive in their own fields or just so supportive of their kids, they made space for them to become famous. Each interview is only a few pages but seems to contain a lot of family and personal history. Very fun to read.
