写在前面的话谢天谢地来啦；地球上最粗心的人；黑话；你见过这样的倒霉鬼吗；令人抓狂的美术课；接头暗号；暴力女王终极版；连体双胞胎；世界上最幸福的人；爸爸的阴谋；大家一起当笨蛋等。
十几年前，我写了女儿的故事。后来，我看见别人也纷纷写。谢天谢地，这实在是一件很不错的事。因为我们知道了，原来写作可以是窗外的和开阔的，也可以是家里的和细碎的。自己的孩子，也是风趣的童话和生动的故事。谢天谢地，他们也能是文学。谢天谢地，现在谢倩霓也写了。她家的谢天谢地，就这样也成了文学，成了被阅读的故事。很好。谢天谢地。
——著名儿童文学作家、上海师范大学教授、博士生导师 梅子涵 在我看来，谢倩霓的这些故事不仅是快乐、幽默与热闹，更是生活的细致和智慧，是一个母亲的耐心与审美，是一个作家过滤生活以及升华素材的真功夫。我总觉得那不仅是一个写作和描述，更是一种由衷的感恩和幸福，那是生活的朴纱枝条里开出的花和结出的果。
