About the Book
Life is never peaceful in Chris Erskine's house, what with the four kids, 300-pound beagle, chronically leaky roof, and long-suffering wife, Posh. And that's exactly the way he likes it, except when he doesn't. Every week in the Los Angeles Times and Chicago Tribune (and now and then in many other papers), Erskine distills, mocks, and makes us laugh at the absurdities of suburban fatherhood. And now, he's gathered the very best of these witty and wise essays―and invited his kids (and maybe even Posh) to annotate them with updated commentary, which they promise won't be too snarky. This handsome book is the perfect gift for the father who would have everything―if he hadn't already given it all to his kids.
My Take on the Book
As someone that has loved reading Chris Erskine's columns in the past this is a book that really brings together great writing that really captures being a dad! The book has a lot of heart and it really does show family life through a different lens. The essays were easy to read and a ton of fun as well. I related to so many of them as I see my own family growing before my own eyes. This was a very well written book that explores family, fatherhood and so much more!
