Let's Panic About Babies! is a book I wrote with the delightful Alice Bradley. You will like it if you are currently pregnant, if you have children, or if you have absolutely no intention of having children. Not just because it's funny, but because you can burn it to stay warm.
Clicking on the cover will take you to the publisher's web site, clicking here will take you to Amazon.com, or, you can go to Let's Panic! the web site, preview some of the material in the book, and read a whole lot of bonus stuff we post for free when we feel like it, which isn't often anymore. It's a full-time job managing the enormous wealth that comes from writing a fake parenting book.

I’m pretty sure that isn’t appropriate reading material for him. Unless it is. In which case, congratulations, Grandma Kennedy.
I KNOW I’ve seen the cover before…I think I have…so why is it just now that I see the lasers shooting out of the baby’s eyes?!
*pwew pwew pwew!*
WAIT. It’s printed?!? Is that a galley, or something we can buy? (sorry, been busy, not paying close attention) CONGRATULATIONS (he said probably belatedly)
No, it’s just a galley! It’s full of mistakes! We just got a few to give out to reviewers or whatever, the real book won’t be out until March 1, but thank you for the congratulations anyway!
Well, still, yay! Galleys! Whooooooo! I always run up and down the hallways when I get proofs. People at work think I’m a bit loony.
Don’t let him read Chapter 16! He’ll get all kinds of weird ideas about how ladies dress for sex shops.
You know, I was just re-reading part of Patti Smith’s (insert adoring adjective here) acceptance speech at the National Book Awards, and I thought of you. She said she’d always dreamed of writing her own book, a real book to put on a shelf. And now your book will be on shelves all over the place. How cool is that?
I need someone in my life to get knocked up so I can buy them this book! What an awesome gift. Way better than those other lame books for the recently impregnated sort. Hooray for you!
Well, then…I am extra glad he was born.
Can’t wait.
