Overview

A loving dad goes a little over-the-top as he tries to DIY the best day ever for his kids in this funny, tender, vibrantly illustrated picture book from the viral video star behind Dude Dad and A Dude's Guide to Baby Size.

When Mom heads out for a day of shopping and self-care, Dad knows it's "the perfect opportunity for a spectacular, build-tastic, super-Dad plan." Eager for his three kids to have the best day ever, Dad throws himself into build after build—from a leaf-blower-powered rocket ship to an ice cream truck with sherbet shooters—each more elaborate than the last. But one after another, the kids (including the unusually well-spoken baby) decline to play with Dad's creations. Feeling dejected, Dad starts to put away his tools, but then his kids are finally able to tell him what they really want . . . to play with him!

Read an Excerpt

This is Dad. He LOVES to make stuff.
He’s made all sorts of gadgets and whatnots and thingamajigs. 

But his most favorite things he’s ever made are his three kids. (Mom helped with those.)

This is Mom. She LOVES to decorate stuff.

She knows just where to place throw pillows and rugs and scented candles and mugs.

“Babe, I’m heading to the store for a few things.” 

Dad knew “a few things” could take all day—
the perfect opportunity for a spectacular,
build-tastic Super Dad plan.
