Ah, the delightful irony of this cover! “There Are Dads Way Worse Than You” By Glenn Boozan,
immediately caught my eye, perhaps because of my secret affinity for Star Wars—don’t tell my colleagues. Here we have Darth Vader, the poster child for fatherhood gone astray, wielding his lightsaber menacingly at what appears to be his own offspring. It’s a humorous reminder that no matter how many mistakes you make as a father, you’ll likely never reach the galaxy-level infamy of dear old Darth. The title is a witty reassurance to all dads out there—you’re doing just fine. I must admit, the playful illustration and clever concept had me chuckling out loud.
Rating: ★★★★★
Summary: A humorous and relatable cover that reassures fathers everywhere with a galactic twist.
