{"product_id":"2940014560306","title":"Quicklet on Michael Lewis' Home Game: An Accidental Guide To Fatherhood","description":"ABOUT THE BOOK \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eParenthood is an experience often talked about but rarely understood by those who have not gone through it. It is an experience that can hardly be described in words. Author Michael Lewis, in Home Game: An Accidental Guide to Fatherhood, never claims that he has written a definitive account of fatherhood. Contrary to the title, the book is not even really a guide to what one should expect and do when becoming a father. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRather, it is Lewis personal account of his experience of becoming a father to and raising three children. Reading much like a diary, he takes the reader on the journey that he and his wife, Tabitha Soren, went through. Through Lewis personal account, the reader gets a glimpse of what fatherhood is like. Or, more accurately, what fatherhood was like for one man. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMEET THE AUTHOR \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBased in the San Francisco Bay Area, Karen Lac has been writing since 1999.

His own father, like many men of that time whose primary responsibility was to provide economic security, wasnt really involved in raising him. The bulk of the dirty work was done by his mom. Now, fathers are expected to be involved. Lewis knows that some people thinks that he should do more to help his wife out with the kids, while there are others who think hes a saint for how much he does. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLewis makes it clear in his book that as of yet, there is no ideal model of fatherhood. If there was, then fatherhood, and parenting in general, wouldnt be so difficult and surprising. Today, fatherhood as practiced by Lewis father and that of most other fathers would be frowned upon and considered to be neglect.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e CHAPTER OUTLINE\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eQuicklet on Michael Lewis' Home Game: An Accidental Guide To Fatherhood\u003cbr\u003e  + About Home Game: An Accidental Guide to Fatherhood\u003cbr\u003e  + Michael Lewis: The Father Who Wrote an Accidental Guide to Fatherhood\u003cbr\u003e  + Overall Summary of Home Game: An Accidental Guide to Fatherhood by Michael Lewis\u003cbr\u003e  + Chapter-by-Chapter Commentary \u0026amp; Summary of Home Game: An Accidental Guide to Fatherhood by Michael Lewis\u003cbr\u003e  + ...and much more\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMichael Lewis' Home Game: An Accidental Guide To Fatherhood","brand":"Hyperink","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47070664196336,"sku":"2940014560306","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940014560306_p0.jpg?v=1763610994","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940014560306","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
