## Description

‘By turns bloody, sweet, bleak and joyful… It is also very, very funny’ NEW STATESMAN This is a graphic memoir (like a graphic novel, but true – and also a bit graphic). It’s about the delirium, chaos and strangeness of becoming a parent for the first time. It’s for every one who has ever wondered if it’s ok to cry when the baby cries – and also laugh, snort, lie on the floor naked and drool when the baby drools. This is definitely not a parenting manual, but it might be the only book about parenting you’ll ever need. ‘You will cry, yes, but mainly snort with laughter’ SUNDAY TIMES ' The most accurate account of becoming a parent I have ever read ' PHILIPPA PERRY 'Bracingly truthful... very funny' OBSERVER ' It made me laugh, weep, cheer and howl... essential reading for parents and their peers. ' NELL FRIZZELL ‘ So clever, so funny, so astute, so healing. Becky Barnicoat is a stone cold genius ' LUCY JONES
