Book Nook: Kids Are Turds

There are a wealth of helpful parenting books out there, with advice and tips, written from the scholarly tone to the sarcastic. But sometimes, you just need a book that will commiserate with you, with the trials and joys of parenting. That's what Kids Are Turds does. Subtitled "brutally honest humor for the pooped-out parent," this book holds nothing back, exploring the dirty, messy, disgusting side of parenting.

I had a chance to review the book, and I did laugh a lot. Sometimes the author goes a little over-the-top in describing the challenges, but mostly, it's easy to empathize, because we've all been there! It's a great book to get a new parent - if you want to warn them - or an experienced parent, who will be able to laugh because they've gone through it too.
