Meet "Silly Daddy" Joe Chiappetta, a Christian and Funny Cartoonist!

Joe's life is an action-packed adventure as a Christian husband, father of three, and a cartoonist. Silly Daddy is the unplugged Family Circus of today's generation. Imagine Van Gogh with a wife and kids in the 21st century. Or cross Peanuts with the movie Nacho Libre.

That's Silly Daddy, the Xeric Award winning comic, established 1991. Parenting has rarely been more profound, silly, or profoundly silly.

Be inspired by his funny and insightful cartoons.

Want to laugh, be inspired, and just simply enjoy good, clean, parenting issues in cartoon form, then be sure to visit Joe, a fellow-Blogger, at:
