After reading this, I really think Mike Spohr and James Breakwell need to collaborate. This book shows you how to survive toddlers, and James has a book on how to fight zombies with toddlers. And by that I mean when you have toddlers, you shouldn't actually use toddlers as a weapon against zombies.

This book is filled with humor, while at the same time, actually gives out good parenting advice. Some of the situations are presented in the extreme, but that just ups the humor. Even in the extreme, I'm sure there are plenty of parents that can relate.

The images helped to add some extra enjoyment. I don't have children, but if I ever do, I will read this book again to have some sense of what to do. This isn't a book written by a child care expert, just a parent that talks about the real world, not some imaginary place where things go as planned.

I was given a copy of this book by NetGally for an honest review.

I was pleasantly surprised. I expected to laugh through this book, and I did! I did not expect to do any learning along with the laughter - but I did! What fun. Mike Spohr writes conversationally and I so appreciated the balance between humor and seriousness. I really think this book would make a fun baby shower or new baby gift. I certainly enjoyed this short, sassy, fun read.

This is a humorous book comparing surviving the toddler years to surviving a zombie attack. The book made me laugh at times, but at others the humor felt too forced. The stories do ring true to a mom of twin toddlers, and the tips inside are good suggestions.
