I recently came across a book that, after delving into the first few pages, I COULD NOT PUT DOWN until I had finished it.
Wendy David-Gaines, the author of POCS Survival Stories, takes the stressful, serious, and often confusing, process of having a college-bound student and breaks it down into quirky, amusing, and touching tales that parents everywhere can relate to.
Each story that I read prompted me to smile, chuckle, or say to myself, “Oh, that’s a great idea!”
POCS Survival Stories contains valuable information crucial to surviving the college process from finding a college all the way to life after college. ALL college parents and pre-college parents will love this book.
Parents will learn the meaning of mysterious financial aid terms such as “EFC” and “FAFSA” while picking up tips on dorm packing, move-in day dilemmas, campus security details, and care packages from home, to name just a few.
Wendy David-Gaines takes the stressful experience of being a parent of a college-bound student and molds it into an amusing journey full of laughter, love, and truth.
