I am passing the baton to my son-in-law and daughter. I have purchased the book that I too read, while waiting for my 1st daughter to arrive some 26 years ago. It was a very insightful book for me personally and I'm sure it will be for my kids as well. The time has passed but the excitement and amazement that I once experienced will be rekindled in my children and this book will help them relate and celebrate life and love of it. Funny that a book with such a foofy title has made such a big and lasting memory in my life that I feel it be a right of passage that my son-in-law read it before he experiences the wonder of life 1st hand. Bob Greenes writing style and content is a easy going, right on the mark experience that touches each reader in a special way, its a must read for all new to be dads. I look forward to being a grandfather and am so happy for my children that they will experience one of the greatest feelings in life, seeing the birth of your child. Truly a miracle !

I was so moved my this book years ago, I gifted it to my son when his first daughter was born. The father's viewpoint was both touching and funny! This recent purchase of the same book is for me to re-read and enjoy again. I love everything Bob Greene writes!
A terrific book for parents-to-be!

My wife and I read this book when we were expecting our first child. It was easy to read and very entertaining. It actually inspired me to write my own diary of our son's first year. I highly recommend it!
Great book for expectant parents!

This book is terrific! My husband and I read it before we had our first child. Bob Greene got us super excited about the baby's birth! We tried to read it slowly, so we wouldn't finish much before we had out child. We give this book to all of our friends who are expecting a baby and they agree it's a must-read!
