“Jim Gaffigan is one of the funniest, most relatable comics working today, and his new book Quality Time doesn’t disappoint. In it, he talks about family life with great humor and insight – from trying to get his (infectiously energetic) kids to behave during a long car ride, to dealing with the stress of being a work-from-home dad. If you’re looking for a funny but also thoughtful read about parenthood, this is it.”
