Merrill Furman (Author)

A baby is born. It's a wonderous being, with tiny toes, huge eyes, and a cooing, gurgling mouth. And two people--until now, perfectly normal folks--find themselves parents. Here's a book for them. This book hits home with humorous truths about child rearing. With more than 400 definitions, this is the ultimate compendium of parenting, expletives deleted.

I really thought this book was fun. Well worth it. You can relate so well just from the things you see every day! Hope there's more to come from this writer.

5.0 out of 5 stars I laughed all the way through, so true!, November 7, 1999

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It took me back to when I was raising my daughter. I laughed at every page. The author has a great sense of humor. How she was able to come up with the definitions of the words was truly remarkable.It was one of the most enjoyable humorous books I have ever read. Give this book a 10!
