highly recommended

Very funny!

I'm not a father, but I really enjoyed reading this book. Like its predecessor "How to Iron your Own Damn Shirt", this book made me laugh out loud. I highly recommend it!

Fun and Informative!

I got this book as a present for a recent dad and ended up keeping it for myself! I thought it was a cute idea and concept and would make a great present, but I didn't expect that it would end up in my permanent collection. Boreth offers a clever and highly entertaining look (from a man's perspective) at the whole pregnancy/infant care universe. What I really liked was that he doesn't just make a few jokes about the process of becoming a new father, he also gives you a lot of useful tips and techniques - strategies you might actually use...All in all, a fun and informative little book.

Boreth ain't Boring!

I'm not a dad and heretofore the idea of being one has frightened me to no end. Ah, but after reading Craig Boreth's witty and insightful tome I now have hope that I might someday be able to pull it off. I highly recommend "Manly in a Minivan" ... one of the breeziest and best reads I've had all year.

The very best Craig Boreth writing yet......

...and I should know. I have been reading Craig's books, essays and letters for more than thirty years. His essay in elementary school, "Who Is This Craig Boreth Kid?" is particularly memorable. All his books are "must reads," but I alone have been privileged to read just about everything he has ever written, and I feel very special. That's right - I'm his Dad, and as he says in his book, I did a damn fine job.

HOW TO FEEL MANLY IN A MINIVAN
...and many other essential self-preservation techniques for new dads

Men are ill equipped to face the challenges of fatherhood, but we?ve always made a noble effort: engaging in the meaningful sex, attending the breast-feeding class without giggling, and staying sober during the college planning. But the time has come for new dads to suffer no more.

Veteran dad and author Craig Boreth sets out to smooth the path to paternity, showing desperate new dads:

HOW TO CONVINCE YOURSELF THAT YOU?RE READY, from abandoning your entire existence to preparing for the biggest challenge of all: being useless.
HOW TO GET FIT FOR FATHERHOOD, since that pudgy butterball will smack you down faster than a jilted stripper and make you sicker than Tijuana tap water.
HOW TO maintain the illusion of control, from remaining conscious during delivery to telling pushy parents where to stick their unsolicited advice.
HOW TO HAVE A NORMAL LIFE AGAIN, from getting that #$@%&! song out of your head to appreciating your wife the MILF.
?and much more in this entertaining, life-saving, fully illustrated guidebook that no new dad should be without.
