Are you looking for some parenting advice that doesn't take itself too seriously? Do you need a good laugh? If you answered "yes" to either of these questions, then what you really need is a the Gay Uncle!
The Gay Uncle's Guide To Parenting: Candid Counsel From the Depths of the Daycare Trenches (Three Rivers Press, 2008) is a laugh out loud look at the common pitfalls of parenting a small child. Based on author Brett Berk's twenty years of experience as an early childhood educator, the book offers solid, practical tips and hilarious anecdotes about hot button topics such as bedtime, potty training, and tantrums. You'll laugh and you'll learn as you absorb Berk's central message: You are the adult! Act like it!
I enjoyed this book so much that I would like to do a pay it forward giveaway and give someone else a chance to read it. If you have been intrigued beyond all reason by my fabulous review and would like to win a copy of the The Gay Uncle's Guide, leave me a comment. I'll pick a winner on Friday!
