Best Books for Dad 2016

Father’s Day is a time to celebrate the men in our lives who have raised and loved us. Why not show him your appreciation by inspiring him with a great book? We have five titles that are perfect gift-giving suggestions for Dad, keeping him busy through the rest of the year.

Congratulations to the five winners of our 11th Annual Father’s Day Contest! Each winner received a prize package that includes all of the titles in this year’s feature, along with some special treats.
