If you know who Jim Lindberg is you probably know him as the lead singer of Pennywise. Jim is also a family man and the father of three young girls. His book focuses on his role as a father vs. his role as the leader of a punk band and the transition from his free living punk rock life to the whirlwind life of changing diapers and running to soccer games. As someone facing impending fatherhood it was humorous, frightening and at times even touching. While I really did enjoy this book and it was nice to see a take on parenting from someone who seems to look at things in a similar manner as i would, I probably would have enjoyed it more if not for my obsessive nature which made this the third such book i’ve read in the last 6 months, the other 2 being Alternadad by Neal Pollack and Crawling by Elisha Cooper. I guess each go round of dirty diapers stories gets a little less “fresh”.
