This book is a celebration of a father’s love. Much is written about a mother’s love, but little, if anything, is ever said about a father’s love for his children, except around Father’s Day.

Using the Christian faith to show that fathers love as deeply as mothers, just differently, the book is designed to create “ah-ha” moments for readers who have previously not identified what the love of a father looks like.

Misfit, truant, delinquent. John Robison was never a model child, and he wasn’t a model dad either. Diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome at the age of 40, he approached fatherhood as a series of logic puzzles and practical jokes. When his son, Cubby, asked, “Where did I come from?” John said he’d bought him at the Kid Store and that the salesman had cheated him by promising Cubby would “do all chores”.

"Gli uomini non parlano mai tra loro, nemmeno quando diventano padri e le loro emozioni li travolgono lasciandoli come mosconi alla deriva.

Hanno detto solo 'Tu di' sempre sì' oppure 'Verso i due anni ricominci a vivere', ma hanno omesso i particolari che sono tutto. Sarò un padre nuovo, mi sono detto, un padre presente, una semi-Madre...
