Be Prepared (20th Anniversary Edition) : A Practical Handbook for New Dads

An indispensable survival manual for men entering the trenches of fatherhood, Be Prepared is loaded with one-of-a-kind insights, MacGyver-esque tips and tricks, and no-nonsense advice for mastering the first year as a dad.

Finally, a book that teaches men all the things they really need to know about fatherhood...including how to:

-Change a baby at a packed sports stadium

-Create a decoy drawer full of old wallets, remote controls, and cell phones to throw baby off the scent of your real gear

-Stay awake (or at least upright) at work

-Babyproof a hotel room in four minutes flat

-Construct an emergency diaper out of a towel, a sock, and duct tape

Packed with helpful diagrams and detailed instructions, and delivered with a wry sense of humor, Be Prepared is the ultimate guide for sleep-deprived, applesauce-covered fathers everywhere.
