Synopsis

This A–Z guide brings together a series of frank, humorous entries about parenting, described as far from an “average” alphabet book. Rather than setting out rules about what kind of parent you should be, it offers an honest account of day-to-day life and the lessons learned along the way.

The book is positioned as relatable reading for anyone who feels they are not measuring up or finds it difficult to “cherish every moment”. It is also described as committed to telling “the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth”, with reader comments highlighting how funny and true-to-life it feels.
