Every day I discover more and more beautiful things. It’s enough to drive one mad. I have such a desire to do everything, my head is bursting with it.

Dad Suggests was created to share with others the many different things that we have loved sharing with our own children.
Our hope is that - by reading or visiting our children’s bookstore - you will find something special to enjoy with your own family.

This month on Dad’s Bookshelf we have a wonderful hodgepodge of picture books - spooky, funny, and festive. Check out the books we’re loving this month and let us know what you’ve been enjoying!
The Skull by Jon Klassen may be the very best children’s book of 2023 - and I couldn’t be more excited that this spooky folk tale from one of our favorite artists finally releases this week.
Dad’s Bookshelf for May is full of amazing books that we’ve fallen in love with. The art in all of these picture books is utterly spectacular - and a full range of emotions is on display: a little spooky, a little funny, and a bit of love and empathy to be had as well.
We’re giving away one copy of The Dark by Lemony Snicket. The combination of Klassen’s art and Snicket’s writing leads to some seriously, legitimately creepy pages. So if you’re looking for something spooky for the little ones, this is the giveaway for you!
Extra Yarn is the best picture book ever made. In a world full of amazing stories and many talented authors and illustrators, Mac Barnett and Jon Klassen have created the perfect kids book.
