Rating: Summary: Don't Let my Sin be their Sin Review: Any generation and believe it or not single people too can relate to the family life potrayed in Ken Swarners antics of his family life.I received the book for Mothers Day, and jokingly accused my grown-up-sons of contributing ideas to it. It was that easy to share warm hearted memories and stories with family members after I had read it. A Great Gift to read and save to pass down to the next generation of parents. (God Be Their Mercy)
Rating: Summary: And I know the author, too! Review: Got our copy about two weeks ago and have been smiling ever since (people generally refer to me as the "Grouch" so the book has helped). Truly though, Ken has a unique style of reality and humor. He mixes them well in each episode of the book. It is definitely a "keeper" and I am recommending to all my e-mail friends.
Rating: Summary: The "Real" Family Man Writes Review: Having a community website in Dallas, Texas, I am very familiar with the writings of Ken Swarner. You will laugh until you are blue in the face because we have all been there at one time or another with our children. Fortunately, he has put those funny stories into a book that we can enjoy for years. After reading it, you will want more copies to give to your friends...so load up your shopping cart!
Rating: Summary: Laugh out loud FUNNY!! Review: I couldn't put it down and I couldn't stop laughing. I can't stop talking about the book with my co-workers that have children. We can totally relate!
Rating: Summary: I laughed myself sick Review: I couldn't put this book down! I finished it last night and I can't wait until Mr. Swarner writes his next book.
Rating: Summary: A great read ! Review: I haven't read the book yet but if it is as good as the rest of his articles it will be hilarious. I thought Emera Bombeck had died but I see she has come back to look over Ken's shoulder and egg him on to writing the good stuff. I really look forward to his weekly article. DAWN PHIPPS
Rating: Summary: Whose Kids Are These Anyway? Review: I just received this book the other day. I opened it and started to read, and I swear, I couldn't put it down. The only reason I did was because we had some company coming. The book is so funny. Ken has a way of writing about his kids that remind me of so many "adventures" shall we call it, that I had with my 7 kids when they were young and growing up. This book is a must read for anyone with children. I especially enjoyed his first chapter entitled, "My Rookie Year". My oh my, the memories it brought back. The "Poop-Free-Zone" is hysterically funny. This book is wonderful, and Ken Swarner is a master at telling stories about family, I guess that's why he's called "The Family Man." Again, this is a MUST READ for all who have children. I loved it. Also, if anyone is interested, subscribe to his newsletter. You'll find many more adventures by "The Family Man."
Rating: Summary: Very funny guy! Review: Ken has a way of making you laugh at the daily challenges of parenting. It's nice to know that someone beside me has kids who do such insane and inane things - and find a way to smile at the absurdity of it all. Definaitely a great read to help put your life as a parent into perspective and a great reminder that we can all laugh at what happens and may lie ahead.
Rating: Summary: Fantastic Review: Ken is a master at capturing the parent's view of children. Our collective joy, frustration, and humor is encapsulated in this highly recommended book.
Rating: Summary: Fun book Review: This was a very funny book. The incidents were a reminder of what we faced raising our children. I hope Mr Swarner will do another book with the updates.
