  • Must have for any new dad!

    Perfect book for the rookie dad! Humorous read that makes sense out of a life changing event. Not sure if I'm 100% ready, but I am at least well prepared!

  • Hilariously helpful!

    This book is definitely written for men. Made me laugh out loud on several occasions. These guys have done their homework though. There are so many helpful tips & tricks that every day can employ to make their baby's life a little (or a lot) better. I already bought 3 extra copies & gave them away as gifts to other dads.
