Classic Humor
You don't have to be Jewish (or even a mother) to get a lot of laughs from this book. And, if you want a lot more
parent-related laughs, check out ParentLaughs: A Jollytologist Book: Quips, Quotes, and Anecdotes about Raising Kids
Very funny.
I first read this book when I was a kid babysitting for a neighbor. I didn't know anything about Jewish culture (I didn't even understand that the family I was babysitting for was Jewish), but I thought the book was really funny. Now that I am an adult, it rings even more true. It is organized like a manuel, with funny illustrations. The back cover has a photo of the author that pretty much sums it up: There he is in photo number 1: a toddler in a high chair, his mom spooning something in his mouth. Photo #2: There he is, a grown man, obviously the same mom, and she is still spoooning something in his mouth. He knows what he is talking about. Very funny stuff.
