Now that baby Zoe is a full-fledged mobile toddler, everyone can
sit back and heave a big sigh of AAAAACCCH The indefatigable
MacPhersons are bringing up baby in a wild-eyed, yet true to
life.
Darryl and Wanda, a typical stretched-to-the-limit couple,
struggled with the demands and joys of first-time parenthood in
classics such as "Guess Who Didn't Take a Nap?" and "I Thought
Labor Ended When the Baby Was Born." The MacPhersons found
parenthood more rewarding and frustrating than they ever expected.
Through it all they adapted to this new addition to their lives
with aplomb and severe exhaustion.
"We Are Experiencing Parental Difficulties...Please Stand By" is
a "Baby Blues" collection from creators Rick Kirkman and Jerry
Scott. In the pair's lovingly realistic way, the book captures the
continuing challenges Darryl and Wanda face as Zoe begins to walk,
talk, and take over the remote control. It's a natural growing-up
progression that "Baby Blues" fans have watched with rapt
interest.
Mothers love the strip because they can relate to Wanda's
continued surprise at how her days have changed, from career woman
to Mom, especially as she faces the prospects of adding another
bundle of joy to the MacPhersons' already busy household. Dads
laugh knowingly as Darryl tries to help out and hold down a
demanding job. Everyone cherishes the little Zoe for making
childhood antics (even the obnoxious ones) so adorable.
Artist Kirkman and writer Scott obviously know about
parenting-you can see it in every strip they produce. In this book,
they provide another delicious view of life's most precious mixed
blessing.
