"In the ten years since her Encyclopedia of an Ordinary Life, bestselling author Amy Krouse Rosenthal has been quietly at work on this modest but mighty magnum opus, creating a distinct blend of nonlinear memoir, observational humor, wistful reflections, and interactive connections with readers. A collection of insights, memories, and moments that are at once intimate and universal. Why the title Textbook Amy Krouse Rosenthal?

Because textbook would accurately describe a book with a first-of-its-kind interactive text messaging component. Because textbook is an expression meaning "quintessential."
