About this listen

Quite a few dads spend time with their kids. However, many have no clue what their kids really need. Enter author Jay Payleitner, veteran dad of five, who's also struggled with how to build up his children's lives. His 52 Things Kids Need from a Dad combines straightforward features with step-up-to-the-mark challenges men will appreciate: NO exhaustive (and exhausting) lists of things you should do. NO criticism of dads for being men and acting like men. Dads will feel respected and empowered, and gain confidence to initiate activities that build lifelong positives into their kids.

This is probably the closest thing to a kid instruction manual for fathers. Godly wisdom with a little bit of humor thrown in for good measure. I wish I had read this book years ago.

Great book!

One of the best recent books published on fatherhood. Detailed and personable. My only critique is that it's all from one perspective and that shows through in the advice.

Great stuff

I grew up with the world's best dad I was looking for advice further than just his example!? This was a play-by-play of what my dad did and to make me feel a little more nervous... I just hope I can fill his shoes. But what a great book I really enjoyed listening to the author and listening to his advice.

such a great book
