Showing titles in Fatherhood

The 14 dad authors of Tales from Fatherhood have a combined 874 years of fatherhood experience! This collection of stories of triumph over the seen and unseen challenges of fatherhood is sure to inspire, motivate, and challenge many of the “conventions” about the blessed assignment of fatherhood. You will hear stories from fathers who had to create their own blueprint for raising and loving their children, some who grew up in loving homes with their own fathers as that blueprint, and those who would mark their relationship status with their dad as “it’s complicated”.

We all have a story to tell. A tale of our childhood. A story of our fathers’ influence in our lives, or lack thereof. Some stories are good and some not so good. But now the roles have changed; you are either standing at the edge of fatherhood or a father already. Your child's story is being written. You have an incredible opportunity to write it with him/her. What tale do you want his/her story to tell? What do you want to be their fondest memories one day? A memory with or without you? Fun Dad will help you turn small moments into lifelong memories.
