So, when Tanen's first book (Bitter With Baggage) came out, my wife and I started bringing copies of it (in lieu of wine) to the hosts if someone had us over for dinner. We looked cool, and the host always passed it around the table. Now, with a child of our own, we were psyched to learn that this was coming out. It's practical, totally funny, and so sweet. And it actually makes teaching the basics even more fun than it already is. I can't really tell if Coco Counts is more fun for us or for our daughter, but I'm hoping that Tanen's wit is passed along to her:)
