Summary
It's a life-changing trip. Take it! John Ahern had a high-flying job, big house, loving wife and two great kids. But if this was success, why did he sense he was failing as a husband and father? So John did something insane. He quit the corporate world and bought a busted-up camper-van online to chase an improbable dream: a year travelling together as a family...on the road with kids.
From the North Pole to Africa's highest peaks, John and his family get mugged by monkeys, charmed by snake handlers, and challenged by life without phone and email. Along the way John creates a life less ordinary and evolves into a connected partner and Dad. On the Road with Kids is a funny, messy and inspiring adventure all families will love.

Outstanding.
I loved this book and didn't want it to end. I laughed out loud so many times, it's a true gem and recommend it highly. I certainly have taken on board some of the important things the author experienced and that's family being number one. I loved listening to the struggles of living in the road and all the wonderful experiences the author and his family had together. I will differently listen to this one again. Go forth and purchase immediately.

Inspiring
Absolutely loved it! A very candid account of what it it must be like to spend so much time with family and how inspiring to see it flourish in the way it did.

Absolutely LOVED this!
Had me in laugh-out-loud stitches from the start. Brilliantly written and narrated. A family with *family* at their heart. A journey of adventure - both physical and transformational. I loved witnessing the seismic shifts within the author, in terms of his view of and approach to life and what he truly holds dear. His guiding values very much align with mine: family, freedom and simplicity. Thank you for sharing your story.

Fantastic read
Accidentally funny, yet very wise, this book makes you want to get in your own van and circle the world for a year or two.

Gets you thinking
There has to be more to life and this book shows an alternative. Change is hard especially when against the herd mentality this book shows this warts and all.
