Cliché after cliché. No original concepts.

I appreciate the author opening up about his childhood but the rest of the book is based on concepts written about for decades. No original thoughts in this book.

Good book, but very thorough.

good book with genuine stories but needs more meat. more details to give a sense on how you can do this yourself rather than just the author.

A great read for both mom and dads & grandparents.

I started listening to the podcast before I heard of this book. great job Larry and looking forward to hearing more stories as life progresses. thank you for sharing such an intimate moment.

Great book for father's and mothers

I loved the book, the author's perspective and the advice given. I apply many on the same strategies and have learned some new ones to apply to my life thanks to this book.

The book I didn't know I was looking for

I used to love "self-help" books and resources until I realized I wasn't really changing. I realized that the self-help or self-improvement industry keeps growing, while most consumers keep dreaming of change without changing or improving. So I stopped buying anything that promised "unlimited ___," or "improved __," and so forth. But then one day, after talking with my brother-in-law about my business idea focused on dads, he recommended I listen to Larry Hagner's podcast "The Dad Edge." Skeptical at first, I listed to the first episode. However, Larry's unique and rare approach to improvement got me hooked. Most self-help material is made by "professionals," "millionaires," or "hyper-successful" individuals that promise you can be the same, but just leave you feeling worse when you fail to become like them. Larry is personable and human, and I loved that. So when I came across his book, I didn't hesitate a bit to buy it. Sure enough, his approach to being a man and a dad was something I didn't know I was looking for. It was so refreshing hearing from a man and a dad that is truly no different than me. But make no mistake, though Larry doesn't have accolades or fancy titles after his name, he has unique life experiences, wisdom, and knowledge that is weaved together in this book to produce actionable tips with compelling stories that make everything more memorable. He shares his true life story in a way that is so inspiring and moving, that I have already seen change in my way of being a husband and dad, all without a conscious effort to change. I highly recommend this book. The only thing that I think could be improved is the narration. Though the narrator has a pleasant voice, I didn't feel like his tone of voice did justice to the content of the book, so I will definitely get the hard copy version.

A must read for Dads

Hospitals should give a copy of this book in the delivery room. Full of helpful tips that shouldn't be overlooked. A must read for every man/dad.

Phenomenal

Larry is incredibly insightful. He has made an incredible guideline for being the best man you can be. His creation, Good Dad Project is an amazing network of support.

Couldn't Relate

I didn't get much out of this book. Basically just tells about his own life.
