The perfect gift for every dad who is still convinced he's cooler than his kids
Do you have a dad who loves craft beer, vinyl, trendy trainers, vintage bikes? Cooler Than My Kids is the perfect gift for fathers of all ages who refuse to accept their hip days are behind them.
Are you a man of a certain age who feels more at home at Indie Night than Parents' Evening? Do you firmly believe you have much better taste in films and fashion than your kids? Is your kitchen packed with indispensable kit that's never been used? Does your cycling club always come before family day trips? Is your vintage campervan an extension of your personality?
If the answers are yes, congratulations: you're an Ultra-Modern Dad - and you are not alone.
This book will reveal how to be the alpha papa of everything from baby names to video games. It will explain why most Ultra-Modern Dads are frustrated rock stars, undiscovered celebrity chefs and would-be professional sportsmen. It will crack the UMD dress code - where heritage workwear meets expanding waistlines - as well as offering essential insights for eye-rolling other-halves and cringing offspring, and showing how the hell to live with one.
This is the ideal present for Christmas, birthdays, Father's Day, or to celebrate the arrival of a new baby. Perfect for partners and friends to gift dads who have still got it.

About the Author
Paul Symons works in the media, because of course he does. He has written for national newspapers and worked for leading book publishers, and lives in a now-fashionable part of south-east London that he discovered before anyone else. He is married with two teenage daughters and labours under the delusion that he is cooler than the rest of his household.
