Description:
If you thought Tinseltown was tough...
Tori Spelling might have grown up with everything a girl could wish for, but these days she's just another suburban working mom...whose toddler regularly recognizes her in the pages of Us Weekly. Welcome to Mommywood, where the stars are two feet tall and your neighbors know who you are before you move in.
Like most parents, Tori wants her children to have the one thing she didn't have as a kid -- a normal family. On their hit Oxygen reality show, Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood, the starlet and her husband Dean McDermott regularly wrestle dirty diapers, host the neighborhood block party, and tackle temper tantrums on the red carpet. But when the cameras aren't rolling, Tori's still having awkward run-ins with a former 90210 costar at a laser tag birthday party, scooping rogue poo out of the kiddie pool on a resort vacation, and racing to win back her pre-baby body before the media starts calling her fat. For all her suburban fantasies, Tori Spelling is no June Cleaver.
With the same down-to-earth wit that made her entertaining memoir sTORI telling a #1 New York Times bestseller, Tori tells the hilarious and humbling stories of life as a mom in the limelight. From learning to be the kind of parent her own mother never was to revealing what it's like to raise a family while everyone is watching, Mommywood is an irresistible snapshot of celebrity parenthood that you won't get from the paparazzi.

Customer Reviews
Tori Spelling's second book is worth reading if you liked the first one. I do think that the first one was better. Tori is real and doesn't hold anything back.
unfortunately this book was shipped one state away from me to the other end of the map! it took quite a timely journey before making it home to me.i was hoping to read it during cheer camp(chaperone) but missed that time frame.i love Tori & her family. sTori telling was awesome and so is Mommy wood so far.
I read Tori's first book and really enjoyed it, so I wanted to read "Mommywood" as well, since I love her show on Oxygen. I found it very entertaining and I really like the way she just tries to be a "regular mom" while being in the spotlight. Her family seems very happy family and I had fun reading the book. I hope she writes another one.
Excellent book. Loved it. I want to re-read it after the rest of my family reads it. Great advice with life.
This book is great. If you like the show, READ THE BOOK! Written so well, it sounds just like Tori talking during the sitdowns on Tori and Dean. Very well worth it. Being a mom, you can truly connect with her and her situations. She is very down to earth and "real". Now I have to read the first one!
