Queen Bees & Kingpin Dads is a fictional novel by author Rosalind Wiseman originally published in January 30, 2007. It tells the tale of what happens when Queen Bees and Wannabes grow up. Even the most well-adjusted moms and dads can experience peer pressure as well as conflict with other adults that make them act like they're back in 7th grade. There are tales of hardworking parents with whom any of us can identify, along with tales of outrageously bad parents - the kind we all have to reckon with.
