Mom : the Fireside grown-up guide

First Touchstone hardcover edition.

56 pages : color illustrations ; 18 cm.

One of the funny new parody series books that helps grown-ups learn about the world around them using large clear type, simple and easy-to-grasp words, frequent repetition, and thoughtful matching of text with pictures. The Fireside Grown-Up Guide series understands that the world is just as confusing to a forty-year-old as it is to a four-year-old. We're here to help and break down the most pressing and complex issues of our day into easy-to-digest pieces of information paired with vivid illustrations even a child could understand. A mom has two very important jobs: to look after her children and to do everything else well. Learn about what moms like (making toys out of corks from her many, many wine bottles), what she hates (the sound of her own voice, which now sounds just like her mom's), what she's really thinking about when she leaves her children with a babysitter (whether or not the babysitter can handle these little monsters), and many other enlightening facts. Both Jason Hazeley and Joel Morris have written for a frankly stupid number of radio and TV comedy shows including Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe. They also write books in the Ladybird books for grown-ups series. They divide their time between London and the pub.

Morris, Joel (Comedy writer)
