Parenting is harder than you think, but most parents are too busy to notice. Nothing can prepare you for what lies ahead: you'll lose sleep and gain weight; you won't have a proper day off for years; you'll become slovenly in how you dress and you'll find the years are slipping away faster than ever. But the amazing thing is, whatever your children do to you, you'll love them just the same. The Ups and Downs of Being a Parent is a gift book on the joys of parenthood, featuring more than 120 brilliant cartoons drawn by Private Eye's Tony Husband. It'll help you see where everybody's going wrong.
