Father-ish

Laugh-Out-Loud Tales from a Dad Trying Not to Ruin His Kids' Lives

De: Clint Edwards

Narrado por: Clint Edwards

In his third book, Clint Edwards shares honest, relatable, and unbearably funny tales of botching birthdays and holidays as a father of three.

Clint Edwards, author of the hit book I'm Sorry...Love Your Husband and the follow-up Silence Is a Scary Sound, is back with a third collection of essays chronicling honest tales of struggling to raise three young kids, making plenty of mistakes along the way and learning to be a better father. After Clint's first collection of stories, which act as an apology to his wife, this natural follow-up will place the author's children at the center of the apology and recount funny and relatable tales of Clint's parenting fails. Stories will detail incidents of the author half-surviving, half-ruining birthdays, holidays, vacations, and other important milestones in his children's lives and touchingly examine the ways he makes up for them.

With this audiobook exploring the widely universal theme of parenting, new audiences (as well as Clint's dedicated following) will see stories as both a mirror of their own lives and a comic relief from it. Essays include titles like, "I Changed a Friend's Name in My Phone to Santa and Had Him Text Threats to My Children" and "Reasons My Children Cried at Their Own Birthday Parties". Clint's addicting voice, writing about being a parent around the holidays, will help anyone who is a mother or father, who works with young children, is a member of a large family, or has ever taken care of another human being before connect with these stories.

Very Funny but Lots of Poop

This is a very funny book in some parts. I laughed out loud at some of the stories. I would say the majority of them included poop, though, and not everyone is as into toilet humor as others.

Complete Truth!

Well written, narrated and full of stories relatable to every member of the family.

Laugh Out Loud - Just as advertised

I bought this audio book for a long car ride and this had been exactly what I was looking for. An audio book filled with laughs and thoughtful moments that kept me wide awake while driving for 7 straight hours. My particular favorite was the chapter about his daughter's birthday party. The chapter title itself got me laughing hard. Thanks for keeping me company, Clint!

Truthful!

Loved it because it is so humorous as well as accurate. It gave me so many memories to reflect upon with my children.

So Funny

Good, clean, and funny. Yes, there was a lot of talk about poop, but I suppose I would expect nothing less in a book about kids from their father. They were actually some laugh out loud moments in this. Thanks for giving me a reason to smile.

I just couldn’t get into it

Based on all the reviews I thought this would be funny, but I just didn’t connect with it.
I wish I had not burned a credit on this title.
