Summary

HENRY LOVES JAZZ is a humorous account of what happens in a family when a first-born child comes home. Told from a father's perspective, this is a fly-on-the-wall look at sleepless nights, exploding eco-nappies, celebrity chef cookbooks, black jellybeans and giant Mexican tarantulas. HENRY LOVES JAZZ is the author's journey from a childless existence to the dagdom of parenthood. Along the way, he questions everything he knows about his own upbringing and his relationship with his parents and his long-suffering wife. Throughout the journey, Lacey discovers a flair for cooking and the joys of supermarket shopping. He also discovers a love so deep he can't see the bottom.
