Disclosure: My Fat Dad is generously providing one copy of the book for a giveaway. I was not compensated in any way for writing this post, and all the opinions are my own.
Author Dawn Lerman grew up with parents that were on opposite ends of the eating spectrum…among other challenges. Her father, who at one time weighed 450 pounds, was always on some kind of diet, which he expected the rest of the family to follow with him. Her mother was so busy with her own concerns that she barely ate at all. Dawn’s calm at the center of the storm was her grandmother, whom she called Beauty. My Fat Dad is Dawn’s memoir, and it’s filled with stories encompassing family times, growing up, and her evolution as a young cook. Honest, amusing, and at times painful, it will draw you in from the first page. It’s this month’s Cookbook Corner selection, and Dawn is graciously providing a copy of her story for me to share with you (read on to see how you can enter for your chance to win).
