Why read it?

1 author picked Don't Make Me Stop This Car! as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

No list of books for Dads would be complete without this one from my buddy, Al Roker. In Don’t Make Me Stop This Car, Al looks at the highs and lows of being a parent. Not only does it have his classic Roker charm and sense of humor, but he also writes about his experiences with infertility treatments and adoption. It’s become a favorite because he’s been a great friend and mentor to me. 

From Craig's list on for families dealing with addiction.
