Why read it?

1 author picked Becoming a Dad as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The dads I work with are always worried that to become the fathers they really want to be is greatly challenging since it competes with work and other obligations. The author, who is the Founder of Fathers' Forum shares his experiences and insights from the numerous mens’ groups he’s led throughout the years.

From Shoshana's list on for dads and dads-to-be.
