Book Description

November 1, 2007
A man’s home is his castle, and as such, he should be treated like a king. And this fun, retro volume shows wives how to keep his royal highness happy.
When he returns home from his demanding job, a man rightfully deserves a bit of pampering. A happy smile, a warm kiss, and a pair of cozy slippers are just the start. Here are all the secrets for helping him feel comfortable and content: advice on cooking from scratch, the lowdown on why a clean home makes hubby feel better, and valuable hints on making yourself more attractive to him.
It’s a great and humorous gift for brides-to-be or happily married wives, for Valentine’s Day, and bridal showers and bachelorette parties.

5.0 out of 5 stars HYSTERICAL!!! June 23, 2008
Format:Board book
This is a hilarious gag gift for a bride... Some of the advice is not only soooooo outdated but June Cleaver herself would have gasped! This book is a staple in my bachelorette gifts.

This book is actually pretty great. We used it for a friend's bachelorette party as a game. We all rated her on her ability to be a "good wife" as we went along in the book. Hilarious! Great gift for any new bride.

This was a great gag gift for the woman that pretty much has everything. We did a bridal lunch (as opposed to a shower) for a middle aged friend. We had lots of laughs. Read more
