Bookroo's summary

A new father reminisces about his wild days of bands, bikes, and tattoos, feeling he's lost his cool. Yet, in his young son's eyes, he's still the ultimate hero. Can he reconcile his past with his present and embrace his new role?

From the publisher

A perfect baby shower gift for new dads in your life!

Keith Negley’s playful and emotional art tells this story of a new father who is no longer the cool guy he once was. He looks back wistfully on his crazy times playing in a band, riding a motorcycle, and getting tattoos. Those days may be behind him, but his young son still thinks he’s the coolest guy in the world.
