Things My Son Needs to Know about the World

by Fredrik Backman

I want you to always remember that you can become whatever you want to become, but that’s nowhere near as important as knowing that you can be

exactly who you are.

And this thing everyone says about how you “don’t become interested in children until you have them yourself,” that’s actually a lie. I only became interested in one (1) child when you were born. I still think other children are pretty annoying.
