Review of Dads Toddlers & Chicken Dance (Paperback)

Downey's book is a must read for all dads, old and new to this game of parenting. I was the fortunate recipient of this book, and having read Downey's earlier book, "So You're Gonna Be A Dad," I knew immediately that Downey would deliver with hilarious material that would make a difference in raising my two daughters. I have not been disappointed.
One significant diifference between Downey's book and others is that his approach diminishes the anxiety that comes with being a dad. He lets you know that there's a lot of other guys going through the same things, and they're all doing just fine.
Perfect holiday gift--better yet, the PERFECT gift to give Dad when his son or daughter turns two. I give Downey's book, "Dads, Toddlers, and the Chicken Dance" the highest rating possible: *****.

Product Description
Hilarious and helpful book for fathers explains thereality of toddlerhood. Downeys hilarious no-nonsense style makesDads, Toddlers and the Chicken Dance a refreshingly politicallyincorrect but informative guide for dads whose babies havemetamorphosed into a creature known as toddlerus destructivus.

About the Author
PETER DOWNEY B.Ed., M.A., J.P., Ed.D., describes himself asoutstandingly ordinary. He lives in a red brick house with his wife,his trio of daughters and a rabbit named Chloe, to whom he is allergic(the rabbit, that is, not the kids). He brews his own beer, takes milkin his coffee and often walks to the corner store to buy bread and thepaper. He wrote this book because he believes in fatherhood; becausehe wanted to warn his paternal brothers about the challenges of livingwith a small child; and because he thinks all other parenting booksare lousy. The main reason, however, is so he can claim his vasectomyas a tax deduction. He lives in Australia.
