A comic catalogue of parenting’s accidentally teachable moments

Built around 46 illustrated scenes, Baby's First Swear Word turns a familiar parenting embarrassment into a sequence of domestic mishaps: frustration in traffic, a ruined breakfast, and painful encounters with stray toys among them. The book frames a child’s first overheard expletive alongside more celebrated early milestones, keeping attention on the grown-ups whose everyday slips supply the language. Its subject is less childhood development than the often-unplanned, memorable comedy of family life, with parents, grandparents, and other relatives all part of the picture.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Parents and caregivers who enjoy humorous takes on family mishaps
  • Baby-shower gift shoppers seeking an adult-oriented parenting book
  • Families with stories about children repeating overheard language

Book overview

BABY'S FIRST SWEAR WORD

Like all the precious milestones recorded in a baby's wondrous life: baby's first bite of food, their first little tooth, or their first wobbly step, baby's first swear word-and the (usually) unintentional moment that caused it, are burned into our parental memories.

 

BABY'S FIRST SWEAR WORD depicts 46 illustrated scenes, in which infants have picked up their parent's, grandparent's, uncle's... color language.

 

What parent hasn't lashed out in anger at a fellow motorist? Or burned the oatmeal? Or stepped on a sharp toy? BABY'S FIRST SWEAR WORD takes the reader through some of these hilarious slip-ups and celebrates those embarrassing memories that some of us will never, ever forget-no matter how hard we try.

 

BABY'S FIRST SWEAR WORD would be the perfect addition to many baby shower gift baskets, where it is bound to have the whole room laughing and reminiscing about the first time this dreadful moment happened with their cherished little treasure.
