Description
Book SynopsisThis dad-centric satire looks like a real magazine (complete with fake ads, subscription deals, and letters to the editor), but in fact it's a hilarious and heartfelt satire of fatherhood in twenty first-century America. With hard-hitting feature reporting (What's Up with the Neighbor's Lawn? We Investigate), in-depth lifestyle articles (Buying Shoes on eBay: A Guide), fashion tips (Rumpled Brown Suit: Who Wore It Best), handy how-tos (A Visual Guide to Packing the Car), and insightful opinion pieces (These Smoke Detectors Are Too Damn Sensitive, If You Ask Me), this is the perfect faux periodical for dads of every age, facial-hair style, and sandals/socks combo. Photos, illustrations, and hilarious advertisements throughout showcase all the frustrations, failures, and funny moments that make up the face of modern fatherhood.
