Dads Have No Shame

Reach for this book when your child starts showing the first signs of social self-consciousness or 'cringing' at your behavior in public. It is a perfect choice for navigating that tricky developmental bridge where children begin to value peer opinions over family antics. The story follows Sarah Allen as she watches her father enter a ridiculous, high-stakes competition with a neighbor over a garage sale. As the dads engage in increasingly embarrassing stunts to attract customers, Sarah must grapple with her own mortification. It is a lighthearted, humorous look at family loyalty, the absurdity of adult competition, and the realization that while parents can be deeply uncool, their hearts are usually in the right place. This short chapter book is ideal for 7 to 10 year olds who are ready for a relatable, realistic story about the awkward side of growing up.
