Book Review - Where the Wild Dads Went

Where the Wild Dads Went

 photo disclaimer_zpsd3x74ej2.jpg


About the Book
The night Dad had a few cheeky ones after work, forgot the milk and tripped over the rubbish, Mum called him A Wild Thing and said "Don't mind me!" and spent the rest of the night on the phone . . .

In this hilarious, touching homage to Maurice Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are, a tired and emotional dad finds himself drifting off to the place where the Wild Dads went. 'Now PARTYYYYYYYYYY!' he said. In a riot of headbanging, air guitar and table football he finds himself at the centre of a great escape, but pretty soon he begins to miss the place he left behind . . .

Lovingly illustrated by the award-winning Sholto Walker, this little book is the perfect gift for new dads – or any parent who's ever wanted to run away from it all.



My Take on the Book
When dad comes home late and lays on the couch, he takes a fantasy trip to a place where he meets other dads who are going wild. It is a place that dads can let themselves just go and have fun. As the story progresses though dad recalls home and wants to return. The return is sweet as his wife is taking care of him: he is covered with a blanket and she is making him some tea.

There are so many details in the illustrations . The facial expressions on all the dads' faces show the fun they are having, but then the facial expression on the main character dad shows too his love of his home.

Maybe the father figure in your home will like to read this story to the young children in your house.

 photo disclaimer2_zps8af35ac1.jpg

About the Book
Brimming with timeless stories and inspirational quotes, this book on fatherhood from Max Lucado is the perfect gift to show Dad how much he means to the family.

Dads are a one-of-a-kind bunch. They can be strong and stern, yet heartfelt and gentle. They may be out of touch with today’s Top 40 Hits, but know just the right word to say in a quiet moment. They are always there to provide, lend a helping hand, or be our biggest cheerleader.

Max Lucado perfectly captures the heartfelt sentiments that millions of readers share on what it’s like to be a dad. Filled with quotes and stories compiled from books by Max, this gift book is brimming with inspiring thoughts on fatherhood from one of America’s favorite authors.

Features & Benefits:

  • This is Max’s first gift book on fatherhood
  • Includes stories and heartfelt quotes in a beautiful, modern package
  • Great gift for Father’s Day, birthdays, or any time of year



My Take on the Book
This was a great mix of dads contributing to an honest, heartfelt book on what fatherhood should mean in society today. I have read many of this author's other books and was glad to see that he was now taking on fatherhood as I knew that the book and the information would be top notch and sharing great information that I knew that I could implement right away. I was not disappointed. Max has provided a great testament to what fatherhood is all about and I for one hope that he will be sharing more fatherhood related books in the future!
