Book Reviews of Dads Toddlers & Chicken Dance
Book Review: the dirty goods for new dads
Summary: 5 Stars
As a 46 year old father of 2 young children, I have found this book to be very informative and very humorous(actually at times horrifying for fathers to be). The book could be classified as humorous horror for fathers. Peter Downey touches on all important aspects of childrearing in a down-to-earth, easy to read, practical, "lets get our hands dirty on this" fashion. Fathers with children will really identify with the problems discussed in this book. He doesn't shy away from touchy topics like sex, nudity in front of the children or physical discipline. He's obviously read the "professionals" on childrearing and his advice on how to deal with the many problems we dads encounter reflects this, but is also heavily flavoured with his own personal strategies developed on the frontlines of being a dad to 3 children himself. Of course, if you're a perfect dad, doing everything right or if you're not a dad you may want to read the book for it's humour, with which Peter is not stingy.
Summary of Dads Toddlers & Chicken Dance
A politically incorrect but indispensable compendium of everything Dad needs to know about raising a toddler, including: babysitting, nutrition, common illnesses, money, lawnmowers, television, bedtime, speech development, tantrums, spanking, toilet-training, birthday parties, parental sanity, choosing a preschool, vasectomies, the chicken dance, and lots of stuff about sex!
