|  | | Cheerfully Childless: The Humor Book for Those Who Hesitate to Procreate
A light-hearted look at the (hopefully) considered decision to become a parent - or not. There are serious books out there on this issue. Now it's time to have a giggle about it.
This cartoon-filled humor book brings cheer to those who are leaning against parenthood but don't get much support from a society that teaches the four R's: Reading, 'Riting, 'Rithmetic, and Reproduction! Serious books on the subject of choosing to be childless abound, but nothing light-hearted -- until now. Emotions run high on this topic, and that's precisely the sort of issue where humor thrives. Erma Bombeck looked at family life, Scott Adams took on work life, and Ellen Metter and illustrator Loretta Gomez tackle the question with a life-altering answer: Is it my fate to procreate? | |  | | Facts in a Flash: Time Saving Short Cuts to Find the Information You Need
