read the first page

There are two easy books about parents, and I did not want to write either of them.

One is the blame book. It lists everything they got wrong, and it is usually accurate, and it changes very little.

The other is the gratitude book. It lists everything they sacrificed,and it is also accurate, and it asks you to stay a child a little longer so the list can stay simple.

This book is a third thing.

— page 4 of 27, as printed. the rest reads like this.
