Your child sets out to say thank you to the whole wide world.
A personalized father's day book for your nephew
A Father's Day gift with them both in it: a storybook where his child is the hero of an adventure, illustrated from a photo, ready to read together. For a nephew: a one-of-a-kind adventure starring him, not another toy.
The gift problem with dads is that they rarely want anything. This sidesteps it - it is not really a gift for him to own, it is an excuse for twenty minutes at bedtime with his child as the hero. The dedication page is where you say the thing that is hard to say out loud.
Great Father's Day gift picks
A tent, a flashlight, and a sky full of stars - your child's very first campout! A cozy outdoor adventure about night sounds, marshmallow sparks, and sleeping under the whole wide sky..
Today your child tries riding without training wheels for the very first time.
It's the big game, and your child is nervous - until a deep breath turns the jitters into joy.
What to know when you are buying for a nephew
For a nephew the competition is a shelf of things that light up, and the way to win is not to compete on noise. A book where he is drawn as the hero is the one gift in the pile that no other relative could have given, and it is still there when the batteries have gone. Older nephews are the sceptical ones - by seven they have seen books with their name typed in and were unimpressed - so the fact that the illustrations are generated from his actual photo is the part worth mentioning when he opens it.
A dedication in your voice
For my nephew, the bravest one in the family. Your uncle
The dedication is page one of the printed book - the first page they open.
One practical tip
If he is six or older, tell him the pictures were made from his own photo. That is the detail that turns a polite thank-you into him actually reading it.

All occasionsCommon questions
When is Father's Day?
The third Sunday of June in the United States, the United Kingdom and Ireland - 20 June in 2027. In Australia and New Zealand it is the first Sunday of September instead, so check which one applies to you before you order.
What do you give a dad who says he does not want anything?
Something that is about his child rather than about him. A storybook where his own child is the hero gives him a reason to sit down and read rather than an object to find space for.
Can I add a message from the children?
Yes. Every book has a dedication page, and it prints inside the book - so it stays with it rather than being thrown away with the card.
