5 out of 5 Stars
"Dadly Virtues" is fun, and not just for the virtuous!
This collection of insightful, humorous, sometimes laugh-out-loud funny reflections on the experience of fatherhood (and even grandfather-hood) is a wonderful distraction from the demands of being a "Dad." Enjoyed it so much, I bought it for my son, the father of three of my grandsons. Get ready for some insights into becoming a father and the fact that "our children make us adults." If you have only one book to read on Father's Day, make it this one! " |
