Matt Coyne
Sunday Times bestseller. Honest, funny, no-bullshit account of new fatherhood by a regular bloke. Probably the most-gifted UK dad book.
Daddy.London editorial note: If you read one book before the baby comes, make it this one. Properly funny, properly true.
Mark Woods
Month-by-month guide to the pregnancy your partner is doing, and what you can actually do about it.
Daddy.London editorial note: The pregnancy book that explains scans, kit, and how to be useful instead of in the way.
Philippa Perry
Bestselling guide to breaking generational patterns. Bracingly honest. Applies as much to dads as mums.
Daddy.London editorial note: The book that makes you think about your own dad before you think about yourself as one.
Dr. Becky Kennedy
The companion to the podcast. Sturdy, science-backed parenting tools for emotional resilience.
Daddy.London editorial note: Highlighter required. The most-actually-used parenting book on the shelf.
