Ramona's picks for Father's Day

Some favorite reading about daddies:

I Love My Daddy by Kate Gleeson
Because Your Daddy Loves You by Andrew Clements
Daddy's Lullaby by Tony Bradman
Ramona and Her Father by Beverly Cleary

And, a delightful poem by Alfred Noyes (read a fascinating bio of him here) "Daddy Fell into the Pond":
Everyone grumbled. The sky was gray.
We had nothing to do and nothing to say.
We were nearing the end of a dismal day,
And there seemed to be nothing beyond,
THEN
Daddy fell into the pond!

Read the rest here.

And, for the Atticus in your life:
Alton Brown teaches us how to brew beer.
