Cover Image Welcome and thank you for your interest in our new book. We wrote The Fatherstyle Advantage: Surefire Techniques Every Parent Can Use to Raise Confident and Caring Kids because we believe strongly in a simple premise: we can all become better parents by adopting some of the practices of today's most involved fathers.
Our web site provides complete information about The Fatherstyle Advantage, including our schedule of personal appearances and useful parenting information and advice. We're eager to hear from you, so please feel free to email us with your comments about the book or your questions on parenting issues. We promise that if we can't help you, we'll put you in touch with someone who can.
You can also sign up for Fatherstyle Today, our free e-newsletter. It contains useful parenting advice and resources as well as updated information about the book and our personal appearance schedules.
Finally, please consider inviting us to speak in your community. There's nothing we enjoy more than personally meeting parents and letting them know how The Fatherstyle Advantage can help them become better parents. We're also happy to speak to book clubs, either in person or, if distance is a challenge, by telephone.
Our goal is to create an exciting dialogue in which we can all use The Fatherstyle Advantage to become happier, more effective parents! Signed, Kevin O'Shea and James Windell Photo

I devoured The Fatherstyle Advantage in one sitting. It’s practical, research-based, funny, and very affirming of the gifts men bring to their children. This book is making a positive difference for my wife and kids and me.
