Not Your Father's Father's Day Books

I went on Good Morning, Connecticut today and you know, I really didn’t want to go the usual Father’s Day Hallmark-y sapfest direction. You can find that pretty much anywhere you look. The station got some calls, and happily, they were to find out which books I recommended, not to complain, so that’s a good sign!




Here are more titles celebrating families with same-sex parents (thanks to Lee Wind for the list!):
