When SpongeBob starts his own television show about the power of a mother's love, he mistakenly believes that his own mother is no longer proud of him

At head of title: Nickelodeon SpongeBob SquarePants.

It's Take-Your-Mom-to-Lunch Day at the Krusty Krab, and everyone's mom is there-except SpongeBob's. SpongeBob SquarePants says that his Mom can't come because she is a big TV star. Imagine everyone's surprise when she does show up!

In an ideal world, mothers would have time to hand-sew their kids' costumes for the school play, prepare all-organic meals, and volunteer in the classroom at the drop of a hat. In reality, most moms have to settle for plopping their little ones in front of SpongeBob so that they can prepare yet another chicken nugget-based dinner, guiltily convinced they're falling down on the job. In Good-Enough Mother, René Syler pulls back the curtain to reveal the truth about modern mothering and reassure time-stressed moms that even if their children are strangers to made-from-scratch cookies, they can emerge as happy, well-adjusted, fully functioning members of society. Mother to two great kids of her own, Syler explains how she learned to chuck perfection for practicality -- in short, how she became a Good-Enough Mother. She shows other women seeking to balance family, work, and some semblance of a personal life how to happily join the ranks of Good-Enough Mothers, who occasionally serve breakfast for dinner yet give their children plenty of what really matters -- love, time, and support. Each essay provides welcome empathy and sage advice on navigating life's different obstacles, whether it's dealing with annoying Supermoms, bluffing through a third grader's math homework, or coping with the words that strike terror into every parent's heart ("Your son's teacher on line one"). Offering real wisdom tempered with humor and warmth, Good-Enough Mother will have every modern mom laughing in relief and recognition.

After SpongeBob forgets to feed Gary, his pet snail, for a week, he decides to leave, forcing SpongeBob and Patrick to search all over town for him.
