Mrs. A's Tea Party: Two Pregnant Teens. Three Options

This time it's different. Two pregnant teens are staying with Mrs. A. One, Cheryl, a stranger, and the other her own granddaughter, Kate. They have asked Mrs. A for help with their pregnancies.

"Mrs. A's Tea Party" is about three generations of women and abortion during the period just after the Roe v Wade decision by the U.S. Supreme Court.

Mrs. A has healed hundreds of women ever since her sister Karen jumped off the High Bridge rather than have another abortion.

The three generation tea party invokes shared experience, laughter, and celebration of the women of the past and the new feminists.

Mia, Kate's mother and Mrs. A's adopted daughter, opposes Mrs. A's work because she is jealous of the time and effort the work stole from the family.

A Molotov Cocktail explodes and Mrs. A is hospitalized.

The teens bond over their common predicaments. And Mrs. A helps them to define goals and futures.

A second explosion at the clinic causes death and destruction. The survivors must go on. The dead must be mourned and buried.

This book is important and timely now because of the the U.S. Supreme Court and state legislation challenges.to a woman's health.
