Life lessons from New York Times bestselling author and Today show
personality Al Roker and his wife, globe-trotting ABC News journalist
Deborah Roberts
Al Roker and Deborah Roberts have sixteen Emmy Awards between them. They
have covered everything from the Olympics and the Gulf War to natural
disasters and the AIDS crisis in Africa. Now these two married
journalists and parents have collaborated on the most personal and
important -story- of their lives.
Been There, Done That is a funny, heartfelt, and empowering collection
of life lessons, hard-won wisdom, and instructive family anecdotes from
Al and Deborah's lives, from their parents and grandparents, and from
dear friends, famous and not. Here Al and Deborah candidly share
childhood obstacles such as obesity and growing up in the segregated
south; the challenges and blessings that come from raising very
different kids; hard-won truths about marriage and career; the
illuminating -little things- that adults can learn from children; and
the genuine wisdom that the elderly can share with a younger
generation.
These are real-life stories told from every perspective: from parent,
spouse, daughter, son, and friend; stories that every reader can relate
to, appreciate, and share.
