Things My Son Needs to Know About The World

Wrote a review for

ā€œI want you to always remember that you can become whatever you want to become, but that’s nowhere near as important as knowing that you can be exactly who you are.ā€

Listened to the audiobook version on Libby (only 3 hrs; excellent narrator). What a gem! Writing to his 1 ½ year old son, Fredrik imparts his best advice, fears, triumphs and dad hacks using examples of his own experiences as hilarious points to note. It’s such a fun and relatable read that for once I thought he’d left out those little emotional bombs he drops that all of a sudden bring a lump to the throat and a tear to the eye, wait until you get about 43% in!

This is a love letter to friendship, marriage, parenthood and all that comes before it and after. There are so many quotable moments that you might as well just dip the book in highlighter, if you’re annotating. This would make an exceptionally nice Father’s Day gift from a father to a son who is soon to become a first time dad. Would make for a fun little beach read or palate cleanser as well.
