Description
You’ve read every other parenting guide, and you still don’t know whether you’re a good parent. Mike Julianelle, the Brooklyn-based dad and founder of Dad and Buried, is here to tell you exactly what you want to hear—that you’re already great and the kids are the problem. Jokes aside, this book provides the help that every fed-up and exhausted parent needs to survive another day, including short essays, funny illustrations, and jokes on topic such as:
- You Can’t Handle the Baby-Proof
- We’re All Mad Here—Well, Mostly the Toddler
- Stay at Home Dad Trial
- Surviving Disney World
- The Ultimate Dad Pep Talk
In this hilarious book, Mike Julianelle will remind you to cut yourself some slack. Parenting is no easy feat and if you’re here, you’re already a pretty great dad.

Featured Reviews
Dad Truths is a book based on the experiences of fatherhood by Mike Julianelle, who goes by Dad and Buried on social media.
I will start by saying I haven't come across the Dad and Buried account but if his book is anything to go by, I will definitely take a look.
Dad Truths is a very good book for new dads to read. It gives all the details, good and bad, about what to expect from parenthood. It doesn't patronise its readers and comes across as if you are talking to a friend rather than reading a textbook. Dad Truths is very funny, and as a dad of a 7-month-old has left me excited (and terrified) of the years to come.
Many thanks to Mike Julianelle, NetGalley, and Quarto Publishing for this copy.
I received a complimentary copy of this book via Netgalley. Opinions expressed in this review are my own
I am not male, nor do I have children. I felt this book was rather entertaining and reminded me a lot of my friends who are fathers. I think they will find Dad Truths just as entertaining as I did.
