You Can Date Boys When You’re Forty: Dave Barry on Parenting and Other Topics He Knows Very Little About

February 24, 2014 by Elizabeth

dave barryHeeeeee’s back! I don’t know about you, but I used to love reading Dave Barry’s weekly column in my local paper, back in the day when we got the paper. I discovered his books, collections of his columns, and avidly read those too. But in recent years, we’ve drifted apart.

So I was thrilled to see he’s back, nattering on about parenting and other topics he knows very little about, in as fine a form as ever.

This new collection is great. He takes his 13-year-old daughter to a Justin Beiber concert, he reads 50 Shades of Grey in order to find out what women really want, Mr. Language Person returns to explain grammar to us, Dave, his wife Michelle, and their daughter Sophia tour Israel, and so much more.

You Can Date Boys When You’re Forty: Dave Barry on Parenting and Other Topics He Knows Very Little About shows that age hasn’t slowed Dave Barry down a bit! It’s a delightful read, highly recommended. Best of all, one of you can win a free copy for yourself. Click on over to my review at 5 Minutes for Mom and follow the instructions. Good luck!
