DADspirations Dad-to-Be Book Wins 10th Annual USA Best Book Awards
Bartlett, IL (PRWEB) November 25, 2013 -- DADspirations: The 1st 100 Days of Fatherhood has been recognized as an Award-Winning Finalist in the Parenting and Family category of the 2013 USA Best Book Awards, sponsored by USA Book News. (http://www.dadspirations.com, ISBN 978-0615663630).
Using creative ideas and proactive approach to parenting interwoven with his personal account of being a new dad, author Pete Densmore highlights why the first 100 days of fatherhood are critical for a dad-to-be or a new dad. The book showcases 35 ideas, illustrated with photographs, that Dad can creatively do for his wife, baby and himself. The result is an award-winning non-fiction book with a unique, bold take on fatherhood and is a must-read for a dad-to-be or new dad.
A recent survey by the Pew Research Center found that Americans expect dad to be more of a moral teacher and emotional comforter than a breadwinner or disciplinarian. About six-in-ten Americans (58%) say it is “extremely important” for a father to provide values and morals to his children. Roughly half say it is extremely important for a dad to provide emotional support (52%) and discipline (47%). And just 41% say providing income for his children is one of a father’s most important responsibilities, according to the nationally representative survey of 1,004 adults conducted June 6-9, 2013. Densmore helps answers the question: "How can a new dad be dependable, and still fun?"
