SAN FRANCISCO, CA — February 3, 2026 — Gifted Books is proud to announce that Good Moms DO Cry: Raise Resilient Kids as an Immigrant Parent by Lucy Chen has become an Amazon Bestseller. It reached #1 in Child Discipline and #1 in Parenting Emotions & Feelings, and #5 in Parenting Teenagers in the Kindle Store.
In a publishing landscape where millions of books are released each year, Chen’s work stands out not just for its message—but for its ability to drive meaningful transformation in readers’ lives. The book challenges conventional approaches to personal development, emphasizing that success is not built on experience alone, but on the ability to shift beliefs and perspectives.
“In 2026, anyone can publish a book,” said Chen. “But almost no one knows how to make it matter. Readers don’t buy your background—they buy a belief shift.”
Good Moms DO Cry is written for parents, especially immigrant moms and dads, who feel lost in the messy middle of raising kids in a new country. Through personal stories, cultural reflections, and practical insights, Chen shows that parenting doesn’t have to be a tug of war between Tiger Mother expectations and a child pushing back. The book helps parents raise resilient kids without losing themselves in the process.
“Your book should speak for you in rooms you haven’t entered yet,” Chen added. “That’s when it truly becomes powerful.”
As a speaker, author, and founder of Gifted Coaching and Gifted Books, Chen continues to help professionals and aspiring authors craft impactful narratives that resonate across industries and audiences.
