Rating: Summary: Expectant mom's best friend Review: I have been trying to get my husband to read a baby book for months, with no success. Until a friend got me this book. My husband can't put it down. I see him giggling to himself while he reads it. And I have to admit, it's much more fun than my mom's guide. And has almost as much information in it!
Rating: Summary: Baby-rific! Review: I love this book! It's hilarious, and at the same time, unbelievably helpful. It captures a new dad's state of mind perfectly. There are illustrations everywhere, on how to do everything, like swaddling, burping, and babyproofing, and all these inventive ways to soothe a screaming baby, and how to keep yourself awake at work. I read a couple of other books for new dads, and my eyes started to glaze over. But this book was so much fun that I couldn't put it down. An added bonus: some pages in the book point you to a companion website where you can download audio files and video files and other helpful documents. Highly recommended!
Rating: Summary: great gift Review: I thoroughly enjoyed this book.It is both factual and funny. What a great gift idea for the new dad. It's always easy to come up with a gift idea for the new mom, but coming up with one for the new dad is a lot tougher. Thanks to these two authors, the problem has been solved.
Rating: Summary: My Brother Loves It - Great Shower Gift for Him! Review: I was so excited to give this book to my brother on the occasion of his wife's baby shower (why should he be left out of the fun!) He has since let me know that he has learned much and laughed often while reading his new baby guide. He also thinks the look of the book is cool - retro boy scout-style illustrations teamed with witty, practical information. My sister-in-law likes it, too! She loves that it gets him prepared not only for the baby, but also for the changes she's going through. Thanks for helping the Auntie-to-be and my family!

Rating: Summary: Not just the best book for new dads... Review: I'm a new mother, fully equipped with the requisite stack of new-mother books. And you know what? I've gotten more useful information out of this one book of my husband's than any of those. In between the duct-tape diapers and taking the baby to happy hour, there's a lot of good common sense here.
Plus, unlike the "humorous" books targeted toward women, this one is actually funny.
Rating: Summary: Finally a practical and humorous guide for NEW DADS!!! Review: I'm SO happy someone finally wrote a book that teaches men all the things they REALLY need to know about being a new father! We're about to have our first child and all i could find were books geared towards the Mom or general guides - nothing that addressed all the things a DAD needs to know. "BE PREPARED" IS A MUST-READ FOR ALL NEW DADS!
Rating: Summary: Super Review: New dads will definitely be prepared for this life-altering event after reading this handbook. The writing is informative as well as humorous, which is a good thing since laughs are, at times, hard to come by during this period. The illustrations are extremely creative and beautifully executed. I would highly reccommend this book not only for new dads, but also for those of you who enjoy an excellent read.
Rating: Summary: How have Dad's survived before this book came out??? Review: Pure brilliance. I can't believe fathers have been able to function this far without it. This book is an excellent resource for all with children. Run, don't walk, do get it NOW!
Rating: Summary: Great for Dads! Review: This book is great. It's a nice easy read and packed with useful information. It has good information on supporting and dealing with a nursing mom, including a man's perspective on Nursing in Public.
A must read.
