Sorry Daddy: A Father's Guide to Toddlers

by Marvin Ross, David Shaw

Sorry Daddy continues on from where the bestselling Daddy Dearest left off. The author, Marvin Ross, who reviewers have described as the "Dr. Spock of the 1980's" and as "reading like Erma Bombeck," explains that parenting does not become any easier as infants grow up â?? the problems just become different.

This informative and witty volume deals with such topics as nutrition, hospitals and medical emergencies, choosing a nursery school and day care, and how to amuse the toddler. Both fathers and mothers are provided with important advice on how to raise a non-sexist child.

The book contains many amusing cartoon drawings by the noted Canadian illustrator, David Shaw.

About the author

I am a rather eclectic writer and began with books on humor starting with Cover Your Ass or How to Survive in a Government Bureaucracy using the name Bureaucrat X. That was in 1977 and was followed by two humor books on parenting and then a humor book on pets.

I then switched to serious medical writing with a book on Alzheimer's Disease and then one on eyes.

Earlier this year, I brought out my book on schizophrenia and turned to publishing. In addition to that book published by my company, Bridgeross Communications, I am bringing out two novels by David Laing Dawson, a humor book on parenting and a reissue of the expanded pet book to be called THE ORIGINAL REIGNING CATS AND DOGS: A HUMOROUS LOOK AT PETS AND THEIR OWNERS
