X-Treme Parenting by Rick Kirkman
Nothing is certain but death and taxes. And laundry. -Baby Blues proverb
When the recipe box has more pizza coupons than recipes, or for those parenting days when all you seem to accomplish is brushing your hair and making a tray of ice cubes, Baby Blues offers parental fatigue redemption. The brainchild of Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott, this Baby Blues treasury features cartoons from Briefcase Full of Baby Blues and Night Shift.
From prophetic Baby Blues proverbs like, The grass is always greener on the knees of your kid's new white pants, to Dinner Table Olympics where Synchronized Whining is the main event, young parents Darryl and Wanda keep pace with energetic children Zoe, Hammie, and baby Wren, as Kirkman and Scott expertly navigate the daily nuances of newborns, nocturnal diaper changes, and the nirvana of family life.
Rick Kirkman draws Baby Blues. He won the Reuben Award in 2012 for his work on the strip. Before the strip, Rick illustrated for Children's Television Workshop and Parents and Redbook magazines, among others. Kirkman lives in Arizona with his wife and numerous pets. Jerry Scott is one of only four cartoonists to have two comic strips distributed simultaneously to over 1,000 newspapers each. Jerry provides the writing for both Baby Blues and Zits, and also won the Reuben Award in 2001. He credits his childhood paper route with kindling his interest in comics. Scott lives in California with his wife and teenage daughter.
