Dear Dad (2nd Edition): on sale now!

Poems by Australians about Fathers

After selling out the first edition in 2010, Australian Poetry Ltd has released a second edition of Dear Dad.

Relationships Australia, Australian Poetry Ltd and artists/designers Gracia and Louise have joined forces to produce a book on dads and what being a dad or fatherhood means to Australians.

Celebrating dads, this attractive alternative to the average Father’s Day Card, includes the best poems about dads from poets across the country, contributions from esteemed poet, Chris Wallace-Crabbe, as well as TV and radio personalities Alan Brough and John Clarke. The poems are funny, moving and always honest.

Better than a Father’s Day card – more meaningful than a gift book.

RRP $15 plus postage and handling
