To celebrate all of the students, who are dads and are going to school, working and being a dad, the Online Library is sharing a few great books just for you.
Fathers and Sons by Sergeyevitch Turgenev
Arguably Turgenev's best book. This book continues to remain relevant today as it reflects the age old cycle of older generation vs younger generation. The strange recurring patterns Nihilism and nostalgic Bolshevism holds over Russian society. Although Turgenev may not be Russias strongest author, this work plays an important influence in all other Russian writers works.
The Confessions of a Daddy by Ellis Parker Butler
A fun filled, heart filled story of a man, who thinks he's happy enough with no kids and a nice wife... until they have a daughter and the world opens. This book is a celebration of the joys of fatherhood and the endless love that only comes with parenthood. Jam packed with humorous incidents and accidents, a compelling read and a nice study break for any special dads.
Engaged Fatherhood for Men, Families and Gender Equality
This book covers a wide array of the roles of engaged fathers in modern society. Chapters include information on government policies, healthcare, work life balance for dads, child rearing and educational theories as applicable to male parents. It may be a first of it's kind as this is a book that could easily be spotted in both the Parenting section of a bookstore and a serious international research and studies journal section of a library.
