How it Works: The Husband (Ladybirds for Grown-Ups)

Description:

This handy guide to the HUSBAND makes the PERFECT GIFT for any long-suffering wife or prospective bride. --------------- 'The wife likes to read romantic fiction. The books are a fantasy and an escape for her. The husband does not waste his time on silly stories. He likes to read books about things that really happened and tales of real men. Reading these will be invaluable if he ever has to land on the moon or be in the S.A.S. or help manage the England football team.' --------------- 'The husband likes to do simple repairs, like changing the washer on a tap. Afterwards he likes to talk at great length about what a struggle it was, and will want to be treated as if he has invented a machine that turns farts into gold.' --------------- This delightful book is the latest in the series of Ladybird books which have been specially planned to help grown-ups with the world about them. The large clear script, the careful choice of words, the frequent repetition and the thoughtful matching of text with pictures all enable grown-ups to think they have taught themselves to cope. Featuring original Ladybird artwork alongside brilliantly funny, brand new text. 'Hilarious' Stylist

Great fun. They are part of a series and I have yet to find one I didn't like. They are funny and nostalgic at the same time. I like the author's spiky humour.It is a very quick read. And it will be read more than once but probably not more than 3 or 4. Still, a nice silly present, for yourself or that someone special who has everything.

I read it in few mins, but how true it is!! Laughing is guaranteed from the beginning as it starts as "This is a husband. He may look complicated, but he is in fact very simple. He runs on sausages and beer"

Funny book
