Publisher Description
Where did Dad learn how to be the best father ever? At Dad School, of course!
In this adorable kid’s-eye view of what would happen if Dad went to school, a little boy imagines a place where all dads learn their amazing skills, like giving piggyback rides and making giant sandwiches for lunch. With warm, silly illustrations and a fun role-reversal story in which dads act like kids, young readers will love imagining what would happen if their own dads went to Dad School.
And don’t forget Mom: Look for the companion book, Mom School!

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Van Slyke and Burris return to the premise of Mom School (2015) as a boy imagines what the curriculum must be like at "Dad School," where fathers learn to do the things they do best. There's a lot of fun to be had in Burris's scraggly pencil illustrations, which show fathers racing around the schoolyard on bikes with training wheels, using stuffed animals to practice "how to throw their kids up in the air and catch them," and eating towering sandwiches at a table better suited to kindergartners. Sweetly funny and full of paternal devotion. Ages 3 7.
