Synopsis

A joyful, humorous, and inclusive celebration of the fathers, grandfathers, and father figures in our lives. A perfect pick for Father's Day, graduation, new baby arrivals, and all of the special moments in a child's life!

Because of Dads features music and special effects. Listen along and enjoy the fun!

Because of dads, we giggle and smile and dress up and dream. Bad singing and dancing are always better with Dad around!

Because of dads, we can be silly and fun and strong and brave, soaring past the bad guys and saving the day.

And when life gets us down and times are tough, dads teach us patience, and dads help us up.

Because of dads, we know we are loved. Above and beyond—the way only dads can.

A Macmillan Audio production from Roaring Brook Press

About K.E. Lewis

K.E. Lewis was raised in Bishopville, South Carolina, where the weather is hot and the accent thick. He loves words, learning new things, and teaching new things. When he’s not immersed in his characters, K.E. is looking for great food, visiting somebody’s museum, doodling at his arts and craft station, or catching up on the shows he’s missed while creating stories. He resides on the border of both Carolinas, making frequent trips to the beaches, and often thinking of his namesake, the person who inspired him to write this book, his father.

Goodreads review by Mateo on January 25, 2026

I’ll start with the obvious disclaimer. As a single dad, I’m biased. Most of the books I read with my girls center around moms, so finding one that puts dads in the spotlight felt like a win before we even hit play. And it delivered. I genuinely related to a lot of the “because of dads” moments, and......more

Goodreads review by Ryan on February 10, 2026

For a kids audiobook this is fine. It’s well produced. It has more than just the story. I’m not the biggest fan of the story itself. There are lots of books just like this. It was nothing new or nothing different just more of the same only this time on audio.......more
