When you are a dad, parenting can really sneak up on you. But when you are a stay-at-home, down in the trenches dad, you have no choice but to get up to speed pretty quickly.

In this collection of essays, stories, and miscellany, Andrew explores the lighter (and occasionally heavier) side of parenting...

Kimberella lived in the city, took piano lessons, baked, knitted and never quite grew up.

It takes all kinds of people to make a world, the expression goes. But maybe it really takes only two kinds. People who put ketchup on their fries, and people who put the ketchup on the side. People who squeeze gently from the bottom, and people who manhandle the toothpaste tube.

2 Kinds of People is the interactive visual personality quiz that's as much fun as a game. It works by showing two illustrations side by side. If you and your partner pick the same one, score it on the foldout wheel in the back, and move to the next. At the end, the number of matches determines...
