A very humours book that really gives the facts of life in regards to raising kids from a father's point of view. It made me reflect that I take myself much too seriously. When kids do what they do, at times it is very funny. In the heat of the momement I don't tend to think it is very funny. Bill Cosby has the gift of being able to sit back and detach himself from the situation in order to find the humour in it. This is a very rare gift that I am totally envious of. Bill focuses on what is important in fatherhood. I agree with what he feels is the reason that father's should exist. I agree with what his definition of the purpose of fathers are. I highly recommend this book. It is enlightning. It is educational and above all, it is very funny. It's a short book. Most of it is material is from "Bill Cosby: Himself" which I've practically memorized. And reading it in narrative form tells you how good of a comic Bill Cosby was. But mostly that he was a performer, not really a narrative writer. If you already know his material, the book ends up being highly skimmable. The mediocrity gets compounded by the fact that it's remarkably out of date. At the time, it had a lot of forward-thinking ideas about the presence of the father in a child's life. It's nice to know that the things he was fighting for in 1986 are common today. But it remains a book written in 1986. And there's no way around it. Stick to the albums. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

As one could probably guess, Fatherhood is about being a father. Bill Cosby shares stories, jokes and advice on the topic.
It was funny. I’ve always liked Bill Cosby. I don’t have kids (nor do I intend to), so there were parts I could have done without (in particular, the afterward by the doctor with serious advice), but often, his stories are laugh-out-loud funny. Of course, I have parents and a brother, and I was a child once, so I could still see the humour in the stories. Some of the stories were used in The Cosby Show, too, so I got a kick out of remembering that, too, while reading about it. ( )
