“Hilarious and beautiful. . . . A new father finally
understands what it’s all about.”—Chicago Tribune“A bravely
honest memoir of parenthood.”—The New York Times“Funny. . .
. Cooper grows as fast emotionally as his daughter does
physically.”—Los Angeles Times“Priceless. . . . Compelling
and endearing. . . . A coming-of-age story that’s both hilarious
and tender. . . . Knocks fatherhood off its pedestal while
conveying the wonder of bringing another being into the world.”
—Time Out Chicago
内容简介
From an award-winning illustrator and children’s book author
comes a touching, honest, and laugh-out-loud funny memoir about
parenting, love, and the wonder of new life.”I would have sooner
been handed a bomb than a baby,” admits Elisha Cooper, early in his
charming chronicle of his first year as a father. But that, like
everything else, is about to change. Luckily, Cooper recorded it
all: from playing Outkast’s “So Fresh, So Clean” as he changes his
daughter’s diaper, to having a romantic dinner at Chez Panisse with
his wife–and baby. Cooper’s disarmingly beautiful essays about the
perils and pleasures of parenthood will appeal to any reader, and
especially all parents, no matter how old their children. He has
done what every new parent is too busy, or too tired, to
do—captured with grace the joys, fears, and stumbles of learning to
raise a child for the first time.
