A gift for every dad: Five perfect books for celebrating Father's Day

(BPT) - Struggling to find the right gift for Dad this Father's Day? Consider showing your appreciation for all that he does with a worthwhile book!

Whether he is a home chef, has a serious case of wanderlust, or is a sports fanatic, there's a book geared to his favorite hobbies and pastimes. So show Dad just how much you care with one of these great reads!

1. Got Your Number

Help settle once and for all which sports legends flat-out own which numbers. In his best-selling book of short essays, ESPN personality Mike Greenberg (aka Greeny) uses his lifetime of sports knowledge to spin yarns of athletic immortals and tell you who has proven great enough to own each number 1 through 100.

Whatever the sport, there's something for every fan. Your dad will come away enlightened, occasionally surprised, and, depending on who he roots for, maybe a little enraged after reading this endlessly entertaining book.

2. The Bob's Burgers Burger Book

If your dad is a fan of Bob Belcher, make sure to gift him a copy of The Bob's Burgers Burger Book. Filled with 75 original and practical recipes, this cookbook brings the flavors of the hit animated series home with edible versions of the show's Burgers of the Day.

Fully illustrated with all-new art in the series' signature style, The Bob's Burgers Burger Book showcases the entire Belcher family and other beloved characters, including Teddy, Jimmy Pesto, Jr., and Aunt Gayle. All recipes come from the fan-created and extremely popular blog The Bob's Burger Experiment.

3. Never Give Up

Has your dad ever thought he could survive Man vs. Wild? Then he'll love reading Bear Grylls's book Never Give Up. In this follow-up to the internationally bestselling Mud, Sweat, and Tears, Grylls shares valuable lessons he's learned in the wild, personal challenges and achievements, the true value of adventure, and the enduring importance of courage, kindness, and resilience. Perfect for outdoor enthusiasts and armchair adventurers alike, Never Give Up offers an inspiring path to help your dad live his best life.
