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. 600 10 Backman, Fredrik,|d1981- 600 10 Backman, Fredrik,|d1981-|vAnecdotes. 650 0 Fatherhood|zSweden|vAnecdotes|vBiography. 650 0 Authors, Swedish|y21st century|vBiography. 655 7 Biographies.|2lcgft 700 1 Menzies, Alice,|etranslator. 730 0 Saker min son behöver veta om världen.|lEnglish.
