520    "Things My Son Needs to Know About the World collects the 
       personal dispatches from the front lines of one of the 
       most daunting experiences any man can experience: 
       fatherhood. As he conveys his profound awe at experiencing
       all the "firsts" that fill him with wonder and catch him 
       completely unprepared, Fredrik Backman doesn't shy away 
       from revealing his own false steps and fatherly flaws, 
       tackling issues both great and small, from masculinity and
       mid-life crises to practical jokes and poop. In between 
       the sleep-deprived lows and wonderful highs, Backman takes
       a step back to share the true story of falling in love 
       with a woman who is his complete opposite, and learning to
       live a life that revolves around the people you care about
       unconditionally. Alternating between humorous side notes 
       and longer essays offering his son advice as he grows up 
       and ventures out into the world, Backman relays the big 
       and small lessons in life"--|cProvided by publisher.
