Don't Lick the Minivan by Leanne Shirtliffe, Who Is the Author of the Book Titled "Don't Lick the Minivan"

Leanne Shirtliffe is hilarious, and not just because she's Canadian.

She's a teacher, mother of twins and a newly published author.

Her book is called "Don't Lick the Minivan - and Other Things I Never Thought I’d Say to My Kids".

I was only two chapters in when I started making a mental list of people I knew who should read it. Leanne is so funny that even when she's talking about pregnancy stuff, she can keep me turning the pages.

I made my wife read a chapter. This is not unusual. I have to make my wife read anything I recommend to her. I push so much stuff on her she grows numb to my suggestions and tunes me out, but this time I got her to read a bit. She was laughing out loud in 30 seconds flat. That's huge - she's a tough critic.

The hard cover and audio versions are out now, and the Kindle version will be out the 22nd. Do yourselves a favor and pick this one up right away. I really enjoyed it.

But it's perfectly O.K. for grown-ups like you n' me to lick all the minivans that we want. Right?

Absolutely. We earned the privilege.
I will not lick any (more) minivans. Been there, done that.

What I want to know: if Ironic Mom and Honest Toddler meet in real life, will the universe implode?

Good question since their meeting has a high likelihood. They're both Canadian, you know.
I agree! Leanne is hilarious! Just her blog alone is SO FUNNY! I am a native Canadian myself (born in Calgary, Alberta) so I understand the snarky humor :)
