One for the Dads: A quick and accessible guide to being the best dad you can be from the Sunday Times bestselling author.

The most important thing you can do is become a better dad.

Hey, dad.
(Or soon-to-be dad.)
We get it.
You’re busy. You’re distracted. You’re under pressure.
But you do love your kids more than anything.
You want them to have really good lives.
You’re doing the best you can.
But you know what, you can do better.
The ideas in this book can help.
Try two or three or five and you’ll be a better dad.
Maybe a whole lot better.
So turn the page, dad.
You’re in.
You just made a big commitment.
1 hour.

'Hilarious and sharp…everything (and more) about being a dad.' Ron Howard
