Tomas Romero

PTA Dad Tomas Romero

Whether you've served on a PTA board yourself, attended a meeting, or simply heard about them from friends, TV shows, or movies, the mysteries of the Parent Teacher Association are legion. In his first book of poetry, author Tomás Romero takes a wry, darkly satirical look at parenting, friendship, and the juicy, never-ending drama of the elementary school PTA. Inspired by everything from Heathers and Mean Girls to the punk hooks and sly humor of Blondie and The Ramones, Romero's poems explore the weird and wonderful - and often eminently relatable - inner lives of PTA parents everywhere. Brimming with humor, humanity and genuine bite, Romero's timely, foul-mouthed poetry collection heralds the arrival of a bold new voice on the scene and is essential reading for parents and poetry fans alike.
