By Norine Dworkin-McDaniel and Jessica Ziegler
Has raising kids got you pulling out your hair, ready to scream? Here’s a laugh-out-loud funny look at being a parent that every parent can relate to. For instance, there’s Hooke’s Law of Parental Patience, which says: Mom’s last nerve will stretch in proportion to a child’s annoying behavior… until it snaps! Who hasn’t been there?
Science of Parenthood (SheWritesPress, $19.95) started as a humor blog and grew into this colorful, easy-to-browse-through book that tackles the tough questions:
Why do children grow up so fast, yet Candy Land drags on forever?
Why must children sleep perpendicular to any adult laying down with them?
Why do children only puke when they are one hour into a five hour flight?
These questions and more are not necessarily answered, but they are contemplated and diagramed and twisted into smile-inducing pages of illustrated humor that every parent will appreciate.
