"Appealing and accessible..." - Publishers Weekly
"...funny...[a] winning book..." - New York Journal of Books
"As much as it's a sharp-tongued takedown of win-at-all-costs culture, Parents Behaving Badly is also a teasing, but ultimately affectionate, story about a happy marriage grappling with the approach of middle age and the pressures of parenting kids who are getting older every day." - NPR
"[Gummer] excels in hilariously detailed descriptions of the sport and its participants. "Parents Behaving Badly" will leave you laughing..." - Washington Post
"Scott Gummer does a great job of reminding us why kids play sports, why parents coach and, with tongue in cheek, what happens when parents forget that sports are supposed to be fun. With a great deal of humor he never loses sight of the life lessons baseball teaches kids and parents alike. Parents Behaving Badly is a thoroughly entertaining story of a youth baseball season that should be a must read." - Cal Ripken, Jr., member, National Baseball Hall of Fame, Chairman and CEO Ripken Baseball
"Parents Behaving Badly isn't just a sharp satire about Little League madness; it's also a shrewd and sympathetic portrait of a mid-life marriage. Scott Gummer writes with equal insight about wayward spouses and conniving coaches." - Tom Perrotta
"Parents Behaving Badly is the perfect melding of the modern American bloodsports of Little League and wedlock: harrowing and warm-hearted." - Larry Doyle, author of I Love You, Beth Cooper and Go Mutants
