"First-Time Dad Journal is the perfect book for new fathers. It's smart, funny, relatable, and makes the perfect shower gift. It's going to be the new go-to gift for my new dad friends. I wish it was around when my son was born! Trust me, my husband could have used it!" —Tara Clark, author of Modern Mom Probs: A Survival Guide for 21st Century Mothers

"Andrew has created an amazing opportunity for first-time expectant dads (and veterans, too!) to become more engaged with their partner's pregnancy. Similarly themed to the 'baby book' of my generation, this journal not only offers monthly pregnancy prompts and to-dos, but also gives dad ample inspiration and room to record important thoughts and happenings of the moment. To be able to go back and revisit these emotions in years to come will certainly be priceless for parents and their children." —Adrian Kulp, author of We're Potty Training!
