NOAH

NOAH

Good morning, sleepy head.
I've been up for a while,

Standing by your bed as your dreams made you smile,
Wondering where your mind goes when your eyes close,
And wishing I knew the worlds you travel through.

I know soon you’ll be living your own story,
And there will be chapters without me.
But life is a journey, and it is quite a ride
With many roles to be played, many parts to be tried.

The world calls me Daniel, but I’m Daddy only to you,
And of everything I’ve done, it’s a real dream job come true.
Now I’m thinking about the things you, Noah, might do,
Where you might end up, what’s in store for you.

So before we rise and shine, listen to me
Tell you what I think you’ll grow up to be…

Good morning, sleepy head.
I've been up for a while,

Standing by your bed as your dreams made you smile,
Wondering where your mind goes when your eyes close,
And wishing I knew the worlds you travel through.

I know soon you’ll be living your own story,
And there will be chapters without me.
But life is a journey, and it is quite a ride
With many roles to be played, many parts to be tried.

The world calls me Daniel, but I’m Daddy only to you,
And of everything I’ve done, it’s a real dream job come true.
Now I’m thinking about the things you, Noah, might do,
Where you might end up, what’s in store for you.

So before we rise and shine, listen to me
Tell you what I think you’ll grow up to be…

You know me, I wear my heart on my sleeve,
And whatever it is you grow up to be,
I’ll pull out all the stops to see you achieve
Anything you set your mind to.
Just believe in your heart and let it guide you.

And every time your heart beats, I feel it too.
There’s a rhythm – a bond – between me and you.
It makes no sound and it can’t be seen,
But as sure as the sun sets,
The longer we live – the stronger it gets.

If you need gentle arms to hold you, mine wrap you up tight.
When you need a hand getting up, mine lifts with all its might.
Words get in the way because love isn’t something you say,
It’s something you show – like giving a hug and not letting go.

And a hug is one thing you’ll never outgrow.
That’s just how it is, Noah – because Daddy says so.

Good night, little one. Sleep tight.

A GIFT FILLED WITH FUN!

Is this book really emotional?

Many of our readers from around the world have chosen to share the emotion this book evoked in their dads. So much so that we were able to create many compilations of dads crying when they receive their personalized book, many of them, for their first Father's Day.



Emotion is truly at the heart of this book. Daddy gets to see himself with his child on the cover. Then, he reads the beautiful dedication that you wrote. And even if he doesn't shed a tear after that, your message of love is sure to have a strong impact on him.


daughter and father reading a Hooray Heroes personalized book for daddies and their kids


This is a book all about the relationship between him and his child. The bond they have and will continue to share are the focal point of every story you choose.


And dad isn’t the only one who is likely to get choked up. After spending time creating this heartfelt gift, there’s a good chance you’ll be affected as well!


So what do we recommend? Get the tissues ready (for the both of you)!

Do you have other books for dads?

This one is a book that focuses on the special moments we encounter in everyday life like going to school, cooking together, playing, and so on. If you’re looking for the book that makes dads cry in all our videos… This is it! Also available in editions for 2 and 3 children, this is the perfect gift for Father's Day, birthdays, Valentine's Day or Christmas.



If you wanted to include either mom or stepmom in the book, you can do so with our personalized books for families! Our "The Davidson Family" book allows you to take both parents + up to 3 children on a story book adventure of the most epic proportions!


Our "You'll Always Be Our Little Boy/Girl" family book will have you personalizing two adults and one child and selecting stories all about the fun you have together. This edition is also available for LGBT families.



Now, if you and your father are older, you might want to celebrate him with I Love You Dad or, if dad has grandchildren, you may want to consider giving him a personalized grandpa book. This book is available for grandpa and one child or for both grandparents and up to three grandchildren.

Do you have books for stepfathers or uncles?

All our books are suitable for stepfathers, uncles or godfathers! In fact, you get to customize what the child calls the adult. So, “Daddy”, “Papa” or “Dadda” will only appear if you enter them during the personalization process. Watch the video below for more!
