I picked up this book a few years ago, and I finally got around to reading it while my newborn son slept.
I will say that for most people, this is not something that would be funny or even enjoyable to read. But I found it to be hilarious! I know I have the sense of humor of a 12 year old boy... and I know that's not always a good thing.
But through all of Mr. Vogel's rantings on raising a baby, he did have a few good points that were pretty valid in the world of parenting. Like, you should never bore other people with home videos of your kids.. I know I don't want to watch the ones of my friends kids, and have been forced to watch video of the most mundane things. And the rule of 3 pictures of your kid at any given time... people always ask to see pictures, but they don't want to look at 50 pics... I like the 3 picture rule. Makes it easy and painless for you and the other adult who is not related to you or your child.
So, this book is really not for everyone, or I would even say for most people... honestly I think that there are a few that would enjoy this not so cuddly view on the first year of a new baby's life, but most would just be offended and hate it.… (plus d'informations)

You can still read the archives on his web site if you look hard enough, but if you're really that interested, go ahead and buy the book. It's funny.… (plus d'informations)
