Dad, your new life begins in one hour.

I did the homework, so you don’t have to do as much. I talked to lots of experts, and lots of dads, and lots of experts who are also dads. I read everything I could. Then I wrote and rewrote this book, filled with steps you can take to become a better dad…

Start with a hug.
Talk to them before they can speak.
Then talk about everything.
Read to your kids. Then flip things around. Let them read to you.
Tell your kids your story.
Help them discover who they are. Deep down inside.
Have your kids’ backs. One day, they’ll have yours.
Every day, just show up.

“Hilarious and sharp…everything ​(and more) about being a dad.”—Ron Howard

Fun collection of good tips!

This was a fun and quick book that helps you put life into perspective, especially for trying to think through the years ahead.

All great advice.

Things you know, but need to hear! Take some notes and put them into practice. Well done.

Maybe good for NEW, 1st time dads

Otherwise, privately a waste of time for most seasoned dads i know who’ve already made it out of the toddler years.

poor content from good Author

Not worth using 15 words to review. Some fans might find it better. The book was as interesting as this review

This could’ve been a Podcast / Not Worthy

Expensive for its content. This could’ve been either a blog post or a Podcast. Not worthy for the price.
