★"How to Handle a Child" is mock 'how to' book on parenthood. The resulting stories of this book are full of subtle humor, truth and are instantly recognizable and appealing to anyone who has dared to tread the unpredictable, full of trial, error and humility path of parenthood.
★The illustrations are full of magic and balance between the 'child's eyesight perception and brutal truth.

The book embraces the most arguable questions of parenthood. Mistakes and failures are inevitable, joys and rewards sporadic, but with a little bit of humor and philosophy, the whole parenting business is a priceless fuel for observing life itself. Each episode is illustrated with a scene from the author's own childhood. No matter how dramatically different their childhood was from that of their kids, the core things that make childhood what it is are intact the freshness of perception, the agony of growing up, the mischief, and the absence of borderline between the real and the unreal.
