Product Description

Children often have trouble telling their father how much they love him. Fortunately, this book expresses those emotions for them. This endearing collection of stories about the everyday heroics of the contributors’ fathers, and father figures, will show Dad how much he means to his children. From the story of a fly fishing trip that bonded father and daughter to the one that saw a friend’s imposing father turn into the contributor’s own loving father-figure, this wonderful book brings together tales of heroic dads from all walks of life, and is a great way for his kids to show him how much they care. And it lets dads everywhere know that they don’t need to be daring to be heroic—that it can be the little things that mean the most to his kids.

Unforgettable Memories
The stories in this anthology about fathers, grandfathers and special males in the various authors' lives are an unforgettable experience expressed through the writers' emotions and timeless memories. This book is both intimate and universal in its appeal.

The Difference a Father Can Make in a Child's Life
Working on her own //Chicken Soup for the _____ Soul// series, Reynolds has collected a number of essays about how fathers have had a positive impact in the writers' lives. The first two books in the series were for teachers and mothers, and this new book is being released just in time for Father's Day. These aren't stories of amazing events, but more the little events that make a difference a father can make in a child's life.
There are 50 stories from a variety of authors, many of whom have also written for the //Chicken Soup// series. It is an easy book to read; the vignettes are inspirational, and a great Father's Day gift if you can't find your own words for what your father means to you.
