Book Description

February 23, 2004
Fathers. Can't live with 'em, can't get born without 'em. And it's worse if you actually are one! At last: the complete illustrated, annotated guide to the art of being a male parent, something at least half the population contemplates at some point in their lives. This humorous guide to paternal perfection features a snappy pinup of a beach babe, many, many blank pages for notes, and addresses and phone numbers of 24-hour poison control centers.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"If you haven't yet given birth, you might consider getting a plant, or even a fish, to put you in the right frame of mind. Gotta water that ficus every day, clean that fishbowl once a week, give little Nemo some food! Skip a weekend -- whoops! Namo's belly-up in the tank. Theres fatherhood for you in a nutshell, or fishbowl. Same principle. Feed that baby. Keep it more or less clean. Don't drop and don't forget! How hard can it be, right? Right. A snap, like I said."

5.0 out of 5 stars What to Expect...this is not, May 3, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Be a Perfect Father: The Ultimate Guide for New Dads (Paperback)
...but a tongue-in-cheek, unpretentious and very funny guide to the perils of fatherhood, it is. Not really PRACTICAL, in fact not at all practical, but a good little gift for anyone who knows a first-time "expectant father" with a sense of humor. The part about the octopus, the baby, and the sweater really cracked me up. My brother-in-law gave it to me before the birth of our child and while I still don't like him much at least now I know we can laugh at the same things....

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not waste your money!, March 9, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Please trust me and do not waste your money on this "book". In the description it discusses plenty of pages for note taking. More than half of the book is blank! The book is nothing but random babbles that are not funny or informative. There are plenty of other humorous and informative books out there for fathers to be. Pick them and stay away from this one!
