Skip the generic prompts and sentimental clichés of traditional keepsake journals. Tell Me the Truth, Old Man is the funny, unconventional gift for dads and grandfathers, full of insightful questions, ridiculous activities, and prompts he’ll actually want to answer.

You know the kind: Books like Dad, Tell Me Your Story, Mom, I Want to Hear Your Story, and I Wrote a Book About You—sweet, sentimental, and generic without getting at the person behind them. This is not that book. Tell Me the Truth, Old Man is meant to be laughed over, argued about, passed around the dinner table, and revisited long after the questions have been answered.

What you really want to know is what quirks, eccentricities, opinions, and obsessions make them who they are. 

Inside this journal you will:

• Answer 300 unique and cunning prompts and questions covering childhood, the teenage years, adulthood, marriage, career, and other eras of life

• Ask legitimately interesting, detailed questions, like his favorite T-shirt of all time or his favorite part of his spouse to use as a pillow

• Make top-five lists that rank his favorite and least favorite cars, sandwiches, fictional characters, home-cooked meals, and more

• Fill out a “Trip to the Shrink” chapter that pokes around in his subconscious and psyche

• Take a curated word-association test to uncover what he really thinks

• Explore guided poetry prompts featuring rhyming, free association, and figurative language

• And plenty of other exercises designed to get him talking, thinking, laughing, and reminiscing

  
  

Not another sentimental chore to complete alone, this is the perfect gift for Father’s Day, birthdays, family reunions, or simply putting a smile on the old man’s face.
