Summary:
A funny and intimate look at
fatherhood
from the actor and writer/director of The Boss and Tammy that combines stories about his own larger-than-life
dad
and how his experiences raising two daughters with his wife, actress Melissa McCarthy, who also penned the Foreword, are shaped by his own childhood. Best known for his appearances in the movie Enough Said, as well as his role as Air Marshall Jon in Bridesmaids, at home Ben Falcone is just
dad
. He shares his funny and poignant adventures as a husband and the father of two young daughters. He also shares tales from his own childhood in Southern Illinois, and life with his father, an outspoken, brilliant, but unconventional man with a big heart and a somewhat casual approach to employmen. Ben is just an ordinary
dad
who has his share of fights with other parents blocking his view with their expensive electronic devices at school performances. Navigating the complicated role of
being
the only male in a house full of women, he finds himself growing more and more concerned as he sounds more and more like his
dad
. While Steve Falcone may not have been the briefcase and gray flannel suit type, he taught Ben priceless
lessons
about what matters most in life.
