How to Talk to Dads by Alec Greven

This book is modern, simple, and brutally honest, A kid's view at the way dads work.

The chapters are short and sweet, filled with simple drawings and cover topics such as "What Dads Like" and "How Kids Bug Their Dads" (as well as "How Dads Bug Their Kids" so it isn't so one sided).

This book is cleverly written and very true in the simplest sense, "There is an 80% chance that Dad will say yes when your mom might say no!"

Also by the same author (who is himself a ten-year old boy) are the titles, How to talk to Santa, How to talk to Moms, How to talk to Girls, and Rules for School.

Illustrated by Kei Acedera.


This my absolutely favorite page of the book, mostly because I can completely imagine this happening in my own life. (And it is really funny.)
