This one jumped out at me right away, not from some abandoned library here in Detroit but from the shelf of a tiny used bookstore in tiny Northport, Michigan. This book is clearly intended for children dealing with a parent's unemployment, but I can't help out but enjoy and appreciate its positive portrayal of fatherhood and the difficulty of dealing with the challenges to masculinity that are a part of a nontraditional situation (both fairly unusual topics for a book written more than thirty-five years ago).
