The former wife of Donald Trump reflects on her life, from her childhood in communist Czechoslovakia and successes as a businesswoman to her views on motherhood and the ways her ex-husband's election has changed their children's lives.

"'Behind every successful woman, there is a man in shock.' Contrary to popular belief, self-proclaimed 'Lion Mom' Ivana Trump has not always had it all. Born to two loving and diligent parents but raised in communist Czechoslovakia, Ivana knows a thing or two about working her way to the top. And though she is now a successful businesswoman in her own right, her true pride and joy rests within the triumphs that are her three children: Donald Jr., Ivanka, and Eric Trump. As Ivana's former husband takes his place as the forty-fifth president of the United States, his children have also been thrust into the media spotlight--but it is Ivana who proudly imparted upon their children what she believes to be the most important life lessons: loyalty, honesty, integrity, and drive. With unparalleled candor and wit, Ivana shares never-before-told, highly personal stories of what it was like to raise three children in New York City while the whole world watched. With the help of Donald Jr., Ivanka, and Eric, Ivana recounts with warmth and grace the surprisingly relatable lessons she learned while Raising Trump--and touches upon what it means to be a fierce mother in this universal, eye-opening memoir for devoted parents everywhere."--Jacket.
