Stay-at-home dad Jack decides to run for Active Alpaca Parent Board president when he discovers that a） Chad， his nefarious high school nemesis， has moved to Jack's midwestern town and b） Chad is running for AAPB president。 That gives you a throughline for the book， but it is of course about more than that。 It is about parenting and relationships， about finding friends and figuring out that who you once were doesn't have to be all that you are but that you can bring the best of it with you。 This Stay-at-home dad Jack decides to run for Active Alpaca Parent Board president when he discovers that a） Chad， his nefarious high school nemesis， has moved to Jack's midwestern town and b） Chad is running for AAPB president。 That gives you a throughline for the book， but it is of course about more than that。 It is about parenting and relationships， about finding friends and figuring out that who you once were doesn't have to be all that you are but that you can bring the best of it with you。 This was amusing and engaging; I read it in one go。 The author's writing style and sense of playfulness reminds me a bit of John Scalzi and Dave Barry while being wholly his own。 。。。more

Great dialogue， a little high school nemesis revenge， a parent board election and all that entails for parents & teachers today， and a plot that keeps you wondering- how’s this going to end for Jack are all parts of a great， fun read。

How could anyone really care about the election of a grammar school parent board election？ I’m not sure how Ted Fox did it， but I cared。 They say write what you know。 Well， this author surely knows a thing or two about being a stay-at-home dad。 And someone who’s clearly given thought to the role sexism plays in the workplace。I read a lot of mysteries， and like most people I like piecing together endings。 Somehow I never saw this one coming。A good review should also point out the negatives。So I’l How could anyone really care about the election of a grammar school parent board election？ I’m not sure how Ted Fox did it， but I cared。 They say write what you know。 Well， this author surely knows a thing or two about being a stay-at-home dad。 And someone who’s clearly given thought to the role sexism plays in the workplace。I read a lot of mysteries， and like most people I like piecing together endings。 Somehow I never saw this one coming。A good review should also point out the negatives。So I’ll tell you I had a hard time with the names of the kids。I’m of a generation where Klay， Lulu， Crispin just don’t make it。 But that probably says more about me than the author。 。。。more
