• change a baby at a packed sports stadium

• create a decoy drawer full of old wallets, remote controls, and cell phones to throw baby off the scent of your real gear

• stay awake (or at least upright) at work

• babyproof a hotel room in four minutes flat

• construct an emergency diaper out of a towel, a sock, and duct tape

  • Great, great book for any soon-to-be parent. This is a hilarious way to present infant and childcare and I'm so happy my neighbor gave it to us. My husband read it all, and I think I even saw him referencing it the other day. Excellent read.

    One of those dad books that tries to mix the humor in with the tips and tricks, but actually does pretty well. The humor isn't too much "you are an average joe who is afraid of kids" and the tips and tricks are decent. I always love the pictures that are parodies of the old boy scout manuals...
