About the Author
Annette Rivlin-Gutman, a former teacher and award-winning video producer and writer, has a strong background in educational and children’s programming. Nevertheless, nothing prepared her for her work better than being the mother of two small children. During her pregnancy with her second child, Annette was confined to bed rest and lacked resources to entertain her oldest daughter. Her experiences inspired her to write Mommy Has to Stay in Bed in hopes of providing encouragement to other families in similar situations.
