I absolutely loved this collection of comics OMG. I was expecting something that sounded borderline complaining of what was like to have kids but no, this was actually a collection of little moments that made having kids, fun!

It was so funny, it started with the kid asking his dad why a man looked a certain way, the dad quickly answered that the man had a deformity and it was unpolite to stare... the thing is, the man's deformity was having abs aahahaha
Another cool one was when they saw two men kissing and the kid thought it was weird... because one was a star wars fan the other one a star trek fan...

The artwork is very simplistic, with the pops of colour here and there, but this artstyle really fits with the concept of this collection for some reason. The comics are so good that they don't need to be super neat and perfect to make you enjoy it.

I will absolutely show this book to everyone I can because it was really so easy and fun to read. I'm sure I'll re-read it a bunch of times through my life.

Plus, I need to check this author's other books.

Having seen Grady's comics on the Internet I am delighted they have been gathered into book form.
The short comics cover caring for a small child with various references to geeky topics as well as the hopes and fears of watching your off-spring grow.
It's a quick read over all but one that you might come back to.

A hilarious comic novel featuring the everyday ridiculous episodes of parenting. After a while in parenthood, the reality is changing completely and you don't have to look for too much sense. This comic novel is an account of the everyday adventures in the life of a family. The drawings are not impressive though.

It's a joy seeing these comics online and having a print version to browse through is wonderful.

Books such as these are great for when you need a little pick me up in your day and don't have much time. You can open it up to any page, have a moment, then move along with your day.

Enjoyable enough. I enjoyed reading it for the most part.

I loved this!

I follow this comic on Facebook and so I was delighted to see that it was available for review on Netgalley. I wasn't disappointed either.

This volume of cartoons explores parenting and life. We catch moments of learning, love, and laughter through the relationships of Lunarbaboon and his family, but it isn't all fun and games, there is much humour here, but there are also touching moments of gentle truth and revelations which make the reader pause and reflect because these moments are real and perhaps something every parent faces, or reflects on, or should reflect on.

As I read it there were times I laughed out loud but also times when the comic hit close to home, touching something I had thought of myself, such as the passage of time and how as parents we can sometimes take time for granted.

The art work here is simple with nice clear drawings which are mostly in shades of black, white and grey. There are the occasional colour pages and these provide a contrast to the rest of the graphics. I do hope future books will be in full colour.

The beauty of this comic is the way it explores the bonds within a family through the illustrations. It is a quick read obviously, but one that will make a great gift for friends and family, and also a good book for the coffee table. It is also the kind of book that you can glance through on those days when you find yourself in need of a quick pick-me-up book.

Although I read the electronic version I think I need to have the paperback version so I can hold it in my hands and flick between the pages. I hope the author will produce other volumes too.

Great humour, good graphics, and lots to laugh about.

I've been reading Lunarbaboon online for a while and always find his comics funny. I enjoyed reading the compilation and I'll probably buy a physical copy when it is published.

Explore the daily struggles and humor of family life with Lunarbaboon. He’s just like any other dad--but vaguely hairier because he’s half man/half moon monkey.

Lunarbaboon shares life's parenting moments from the perspective of a 30-something dad/husband/chaos survivor. Together with the savvy, laid back Mom, wild child Moishe, baby Matilda, and a former Julliard student (their cat), Lunarbaboon must navigate the family and social dynamics of everyday life. Ranging from the hilarious (defeating closet monsters with a “stun” blaster that offers surprising facts about bears, Mars, and cats) to the sweet (the gray scale-to color transition out of depression at the touch of a loved one), this collection explores the bonds within a family and all the characters who bring both order and chaos to life.

Lunarbaboon’s perfect meld of crabby humor and moments of impactful honesty give these comics a wide range and distinctive voice that’s both comical and sincere.

Even if you are not a parent and never plan to become one, you will love the adventures of this hilarious and adorable family.

Quite funny, if you enjoyed Sarah's scribbles you will enjoy this even if you're not a parent!

this is a voluntary review via netgalley my thoughts are my own!

This was just an incredibly cute book. I have only seen a few of these online and I still love them. The artwork is nice, and simple. The way the author portrays his relationship with his wife and son is exactly what I would like with my own family. I love the grammatical error and how complimenting other people gives us superpowers. Just over all a sweet short boom about family

I often hear stories (rants as well as bragging, but mostly rants) of parenting from my friends on a daily basis. This book mirrored some of the daily experiences of parents. The humor is sometimes relatable and sometimes farfetched. Overall enjoyable. Highly recommended!

This book was amazing, hilarious, loving, so many words and so little space. The art was creative and intriguing. The characters make you fall in love with them. The bond between the family is incredible even through the tough times. This book is a necessary read for everyone who has a family, wants to start one, or was a part of one. So literally everyone!

I loved it so much.
This ''comic'' is so sweet and adorable. It talks about parent, in particoular about dad.
I haven't a nice dad, so this comic gave me lots of emotions.
I recommended it if you want smile and learn something about parents (or if you are a child who love your parents!)

Funny! I laughed in recognition of so many of these! I can think of several friends and and some family members who would find this book funny too!

Parenting through the eyes of a dad. Each comic presentation ranges from humorous to touching in this compilation which focuses on day to day moments in the life of a father and his son. The timelines vary and show snippets from Grady's perceived parenthood ranging from the early years to late in life when he's an old man and his son is grown. It's sweet- bittersweet. As a parent I viewed these portrayals and continually thought "YES!" Grady is snarky, but he does a wonderful job of capturing the idiosyncrasies of parenthood- in general, not just of fatherhood- in such a relatable and honest way.

This was my first introduction to Lunarbaboon, though because it did not disappoint it will not be my last. I look forward to seeing what else Grady has to offer. Many thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for providing me an advanced copy of this title for review. I do and will continue to highly recommend it!

Grady has a knack for capturing the small moments that make up parenthood, whether they are sweet or insane. A quick delightful read.

So I don't normally read this comic, just randomly see it online. I liked reading them complied. You get a feeling of family love in the everyday workings of a dad, his son, and occasionally mom. A fun read.
