My Husband's Eyebrows is a humorous examination and honest celebration of Grabel's long marriage-its good, its bad, its ugly-told through a collection of prose poems and poetry, punctuated by the author's richly colored, exuberant, exaggerated illustrations. "Generously candid and open-hearted, this book gives us its bracing gift: full spectrum marital truths that are as irresistible as the cream in the center of the bon bon." -Paulann Petersen, Oregon Poet Laureate Emerita "In language and images that are as exuberant and colorful as fireworks on Independence Day, Leanne shines a new light on marriage." -Barbara LaMorticella, author "...this book will open your heart, your mind, and your emotions in ways that you might not expect. Leanne Grabel writes that candy is absolutely necessary. I would add, this book is absolutely necessary." -Christopher Beaver, film producer/director "Witty. Fun. Honest. Deeply loving. Unforgivable. Over the top. TMI. Delightful. Did I say loving? Plus, those wild illustrations." -Penelope Scambly Schott, author "My Husband's Eyebrows should be handed to each and every couple as ink dries on their marriage licenses." -Suzanne Sigafoos, author "Go grab yourself a cocktail, a joint, a warm cup of chai with extra honey, plump up that comfy pillow and start reading. Now." -Julie Keefe, creative laureate emerita/artist
