A surprising, lively, and loving cornucopia of quotes, stories, proverbs, and trivia, this calendar—an ideal gift for every dad—gives a new perspective on fatherhood every single day. Here are amusing anecdotes about famous fathers with their kids, and famous sons and daughters with their fathers. Astonishing trivia, including the most prolific dad in history. And insightful quotes, from Alice Walker to Mel Brooks, from Homer to Baseball Hall-of-Famer Harmon Killebrew: “My father used to play with my brother and me in the yard. Mother would come out and say ‘You’re tearing up the grass.’ ‘We’re not raising grass,’ Dad would say, ‘we’re raising children.’”
