A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Geoff Herbach's young adult novels, Stupid Fast, Nothing Special, I'm With Stupid, and Fat Boy vs. The Cheerleaders, have been listed in the year's best by many associations who seem to know what they're talking about. Prior to writing YA, he published a literary novel, The Miracle Letters of T. Rimberg, wrote comedic radio and stage shows, and traveled the country telling weird stories in rock clubs. He teaches creative writing at Minnesota State, Mankato, and lives in a log cabin with a very tall wife named Steph.

Clint Edwards hasn't crapped his pants since freshman year, but tomorrow is another day. You can read more about Clint at No Idea What I'm Doing: A Daddy Blog. It's been featured on Good Morning America, The New York Times, and The Washington Post. But that's not the real reason to read it. The real reason is that it will give you a glimpse into the steamy world of adult married life with children, and because he sometimes writes about farts.
