Hi. It's me. I'm the guy who wrote this. No use pretending that this blurb was written by someone else.

Ever see the movie 3 Ninjas? Ever wondered where the stars are now? Yeah, me too. But then I did a quick Google search and found out.

More to the point, ever wonder why the dad in that movie was like, "Oh, yeah. It's perfectly fine for my sons to fist fight adults as ninjas"?

I know I did.

We finally have the inside scoop thanks to this very stupid book.

Peter Derk doesn't understand why they've never sold a Twix called "Twick" that's just one long bar made of the two bars mashed together.

Dads will get it.

I can’t think of another book I’ve laughed out loud with more on a per-page basis. I was dying at least twice on the first page.

Think of it like Three Ninjas but narrated by their dad who is utterly disinterested in the whole ninja thing, when he even happens to notice it, also he’s a lazy narcissistic asshole. He’s also not wrong about most things and as a dad myself I found him somewhat aspirational. That’s probably not a positive development.

This is pure, undiluted Derk brand humour and I'm here for it.

I read this whole thing out loud on a podcast. Almost. It was kind of a last pass-through, so there were some rough patches. You can hear it at helpfulsnowman.com

More to the point, how I felt about this book. Well, it's kinda awful. But when I read it out loud for the first time, I cracked myself up just a little. Which I am simultaneously proud and not proud of.

Proud: I made myself laugh.

Not proud: I made MYSELF laugh.

If you're looking for a giggle, this one's a keeper. If you go into this one hoping for anything beyond a laugh, I'm here to warn you of impending disappointment.

This is my favorite of Mr. Derk's works. Maybe I should have one more boy and then I'd have my own ninja trio. The narrator is classic, but boy am I glad that I'm not married to him.

And I think we've all had an experience similar to the oatmeal cream pie incident...

Did you grow up in the entertainment industry’s ninja era of the late ’80s to early ’90s?
Do you like fan fiction?
Do you like to laugh?
Check this one out.
