Book dads don't have it easy. After all, it's never just about raising kids, there are always criminals to apprehend, apocalypses to avoid, and unforeseen events to plan for! So this Father's Day, let's remember to appreciate the dads who did it all from the page. And of course my favourite is Ned Stark from Game of thrones, glad i stopped reading after he died though.

NED STARK

A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin

Dad Wisdom: "If you would take a man's life, you owe it to him to look into his eyes and hear his final words. And if you cannot bear to do that, then perhaps the man does not deserve to die.

The Road by Cormac McCarthy

Dad Wisdom: "You forget what you want to remember, and you remember what you want to forget.

SAMUEL VIMES

Dad Wisdom: "If you lose your cow, you should report this to the Watch under Demonic & Farmyard Animals (Lost) Act of 1804. They will swing into action with keenness and speed. Your cow will be found. If it has been impersonating other animals, it may be arrested."

MR. WEASLEY

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secret by J.K. Rowling

Dad Wisdom: "Haven't I taught you anything? What have I always told you? Never trust anything that can think for itself if you can't see where it keeps its brain."

ATTICUS FINCH

To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee

Dad Wisdom: “You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view — until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.”

BILL 'DADDY' SIMMONS

Dad Wisdom: "If you ever try to touch my daughter again, that'll be the last time you ever got anythang left to want a woman with."
