About the Book

Best Dad Ever is an award-winning children's picture book inspired by real-life moments with my young daughter. It reminds parents that the little moments they sometimes overlook often become the memories their children treasure most.

Filled with warmth, humor, and heart, Best Dad Ever encourages parents to slow down, embrace everyday moments, and create memories that last a lifetime.


What Readers Are Saying

"As a #girldad myself, both to a biological daughter and a step-daughter, Mike Wang's Best Dad Ever strums all the heartstrings beautifully. While Mike himself is no stranger to fatherhood, having two older sons and grandchildren, the vibe he shares with readers helps new parents—especially fathers—slow down and reframe the moments they get to have with their kids as precious instead of pressured. This is the kind of book I wish I'd read before becoming a Dad for the first time myself two decades ago."


"This book is fantastic—it should be required bedtime reading for parents and children. We all need to learn how to give everything for our children, and this teaches children in the sweetest way possible to appreciate their parents. Loved the pictures as well."
