My dad loves to read (yes, apple doesn’t fall far from tree). For dads open to reading about, well, dadhood, here’s a host of suggestions:
Philip Lerman, Dadditude: How a Real Man Became a Real Dad
Cameron Stracher, Dinner with Dad: How I Found My Way Back to the Family Table
Kevin Powell, Who’s Gonna Take the Weight: Manhood, Race, and Power in America
Michael J. Diamond, My Father Before Me: How Fathers and Sons Influence Each Other Throughout Their Lives
Barack Obama, Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance
David Strah and Susanna Margolis, Gay Dads: A Celebration of Fatherhood
Lewis Epstein, More Coaching for Fatherhood: Teaching Men New Life Roles
David Knox, Divorced Dad’s Survival Book: How to Stay Connected with Your Kids
And, finally, though I’m not personally digging this title AT ALL, others may, and, well, it takes all kinds (this book just came out):
Bobby Mercer and Alison D. Schonwald, Quarterback Dad: A Play by Play Guide to Tackling Your New Baby
Other suggestions? Or got ideas for the perfect gift for feminist dad? Please share.
