When Kevin Gogarty's irrepressible eighty-three-year-old mother, Millie, is caught shoplifting yet again, he has no choice but to hire a caretaker to keep an eye on her. Kevin, recently unemployed, is already at his wits' end tending to a full house while his wife travels to exotic locales for work, leaving him solo with his sulky, misbehaved teenaged daughter, Aideen, whose troubles escalate when she befriends the campus rebel at her new boarding school. Into the Gogarty fray steps Sylvia, Millie's upbeat home aide, who appears at first to be their saving grace--until she catapults the Gogarty clan into their greatest crisis yet. With charm, humor, and pathos to spare, Good Eggs is a delightful study in self-determination; the notion that it's never too late to start living; and the unique redemption that family, despite its maddening flaws, can offer"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Home health aides $v Fiction. $0 (DLC)sh 85061693 650 0 $a Autonomy (Psychology) $v Fiction. $0 (DLC)sh 85010458 650 0 $a Shoplifting $v Fiction. $0 (DLC)sh 85121776 650 0 $a Families $z Dublin. $v Fiction $z Dublin. $0 (DLC)sh2008120200 655 7 $a Humorous fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Humorous fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611015322.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=63CD76E627B811EF9FBFAF4235ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b LS@Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
