Love, Dad: Inspiring Notes from Fathers to Kids

Author Dr. Joel Warsh Andrew Gardner Illustrated by David Cooper

Grades Preschool - 2 Ages 3-7

This illustrated collection of heartfelt letters is about the many beautiful hopes and dreams that fathers have for their children. A perfect gift for any dad!

When you grow up, I hope you...

...let your smile change the world
...feel you are loved, in every cell of your body
...learn how to help those who need a hand

Eighteen dads from different walks of life took turns finishing that sentence. Some of them expressed hope that their children would dream big and be kind. Others wanted their kids to have love and respect for themselves and others.

What they all share is a wish to express their support for their children as they learn and grow.

Whether you are celebrating Father's Day, birthdays, or another momentous event, this anthology of letters is a great way to celebrate father figures everywhere.
