Laugh till you cry in this new collection of stories from the award-winning "Serena Williams of humor writing" (New York Times Book Review) about raising babies and trying not to be one.
Called a "comedic Godsend" by Conan O'Brien and "the Stephen King of comedy writing" by John Mulaney, Simon Rich is back with New Teeth, his funniest and most personal collection yet.
Two murderous pirates find a child stowaway on board and attempt to balance pillaging with co-parenting. A woman raised by wolves prepares for her parents' annual Thanksgiving visit. An aging mutant superhero is forced to learn humility when the mayor kicks him upstairs to a desk job. And in the hard-boiled caper "The Big Nap," a weary two-year-old detective struggles to make sense of "a world gone mad."
Equal parts silly and sincere, New Teeth is an ode to growing up, growing older, and what it means to make a family.

A sharp new collection from the "hilarious" (Washington Post) humorist, a finalist for the Thurber Prize for American humor, who draws comparisons to Douglas Adams (The New York Times), and P.G. Wodehouse (The Guardian).
