About this listen

This is the story of my journey into parenthood, from being a 24-year-old man-child with no idea of what being a dad involved to where I find myself today: the single male representative in a household of five women, or, in other words, outnumbered. Our house is now known as 'the place where silence came to die'. It's also where you'll find carpets that are made up of 50 percent glitter and where there are more pink stuffed animals than at a colour-blind taxidermy specialist's. But I wouldn't change a thing. These people are my life.

Real-life parenting through the eyes of a modern-day dad by Simon Hooper, aka Instagram's Father of Daughters.

From uninitiated parents-to-be to those who know the ropes in families large or small, everyone will find something to relate to in Simon's hilarious and chaotic tales of his own home life. His observations of being a father have delighted his hundreds of thousands of followers on Instagram: before now dads are often the forgotten ones who carry the luggage, open stiff jars, take photos on holiday, fix broken bikes, go back to work, do the night feeds and make a mean beans on toast with melted cheese without so much as a pat on the back. All too often dads shrink into the background. But not in this audiobook.

Forever Outnumbered is an incredibly funny yet emotionally heartfelt ode to modern family life.

Excellent book and perfectly read by Simon. I follow Simon on Instagram and his day to day life always makes me laugh.
This isn't a book about parenting, but more about his experiences of parenting and tales of the crazy times.

Excellent "non-parenting" Book

Absolutely brilliant book for parents of any number of children but from a Mother whom has 5 children I listened to this like he was reading my life a loud. Such a beautifully written true story of how a family with a tribe of children really is - they are your world and it’s clearly heard when listening to this. Please write another.
P.s My Husbands stuff also gets sent to the shed or loft.
Just so you know - I think both you and Clemmie are doing a smashing job and you should be very proud of the Parents you are....even when your late for the school run.

For anyone debating reading this like I was...Please go for it - you won’t regret it.
