My preteen nieces have asked for Tamagotchis for Christmas 2025. While shopping around for some suitable ones, I was suddenly forcefully reminded of this book, which I hadn't read (or thought about) since 1998. I had to track down a copy to make sure I hadn't hallucinated its existence. It was amusing to revisit, if only to reflect on how I once read this very silly parody guide to Tamagotchi parenthood in full 90s-tween earnestness. It gives advice for how to press your Tamagotchi's packaging into a baby album and suggests Hirohito as a possible name for your new virtual pet, but as a kid who hadn't yet discovered sarcasm, I took it all in stride. Memories!
