This review is from: How to Be Your Little Man's Dad: 365 Things to Do with Your Son (Paperback)

This is a short book of ideas on what you can do with your son to build his character and yours as a father. Not only will it make you think about how to raise a child, it will take you back to your childhood memories spent with your father.

I don't have a son today but hope to adopt soon. It's a great book for anyone who is a father or nervous about becoming one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational, June 13, 2001

This review is from: How to Be Your Little Man's Dad: 365 Things to Do with Your Son (Paperback)

I was hoping for a book like "How to Dad" which has pictures and instructions on how to do cool stuff, like skip rocks and teach how to ride a bike. This is more like those inspirational books like life's instruction book. Great read, some wonderful ideas, but not the sort of hands on activity book I thought it was going to be. I guess I was thinking of the 365 ways to cook chicken books.

I have the other book he wrote, "How to be your daughter's daddy." I like these books because they give you ideas - like 'story starter' type books that you can elaborate or change as sees fit. My nine year old son loves to look through it and pick out ideas he would like to do with me! I recommend it.
