About This Book
Reach for this book when you are navigating the hilarious yet exhausting reality of a demanding new addition or a child in the throes of a 'wild' phase. It serves as a perfect humorous release for parents who feel like they are being 'eaten alive' by the endless needs of a little one who just wont stop roaring. Through the story of the well-meaning Mr. and Mrs. Deer, the book captures the absurdity of trying to soothe a truly inconsolable (and slightly monstrous) baby. While the story is delightfully edgy and absurdist, it remains deeply rooted in the themes of unconditional parental love and patience. It is most appropriate for children ages 4 to 8 who can appreciate the slapstick humor and the slightly spooky mystery of the disappearing neighbors. Parents will choose this for its unique blend of dark comedy and sweetness, providing a way to laugh together at the beautiful chaos that a new family member brings into the home.
