The 2026 Dad Suggests Picture Book Bracket
Itβs time for the 6th Annual Dad Suggests Picture Book Bracket! This year has 32 books competing to be the champion, and they all were top 4 finishers in previous years of the Dad Suggests Picture Book Awards.
As always, voting will take place on our Instagram stories - starting Monday, March 23rd. That means you need to get your bracket entries in before the end of Sunday the 22nd! Then follow along on Instagram and make sure to vote for your picks to advance!
Rounds are scored 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 points as the competition goes on this year. If the winner is local to Fayetteville, they can come in and choose any 4 picture books under $19.99 straight from our shop.
On the other hand, if the winner is somewhere else in the US and chooses to have their prize shipped, they can choose any 4 picture books from this yearβs bracket. Keep in mind that youβre welcome to fill out a bracket and even officially enter your picks even if you arenβt in the US, but the giveaway will only go to the top finisher that has a US address for shipping or someone that can pick up locally.
The official tiebreaker is who picks the most correct books in round 1! If youβre interested in general competition rules - you can read them here.
I think the bracket looks best on the computer, but you can enter your picks by phone as well! Good luck and have fun!
