They're magicians, jacks-of-all-trades, superheroes; they can easily go months without sleep, and they know what it's like to be open 24 hours a day, like the McDonald's around the corner. Before, they were simply a couple, but then, after a nine-month period of tolerance, something happened that no one could have predicted: the child was born. Educator, comedian, and bestselling author Matthias Jung tackles the delicate question in his new book: what actually happens to couples who discover they're about to become parents? How does the relationship change? Do you still remember your own name and your partner's? What does the birth do to you? And is there really anything else besides the strange being in the crib? A brilliant guide, best read before or shortly after the birth... A book for beginners, experienced parents, and anyone who wants to know what parenting is really all about. biography Born in 1961, Protestant pastor and educationalist, parish pastor in Voerde/Lower Rhine since 1990 and for almost as long a part-time employee in the KDA (Church Service in the World of Work), passionate preacher, amateur photographer and cyclist.
