Normal Is Just a Setting on the Dryer

Culled from the collection of columnist Adair Lara, the approximately 225 bits of wisdom found here are not found in ordinary self-help or advice books. Matched with nimble and witty illustrations from Roxanna Bikadoroff, this is an entertaining guide to the kind of life that real people live.Sample wisdoms include "You can only raise your children as far as the front door," "When the instructions on the flimsy plastic cat toilet-trainer say, 'the cat must weigh no more than 12 pounds,' weigh the cat," and "If you still think your friends are normal, then the friendships probably have room to deepen."
