A book with a dad as the primary caregiver

A nice nods to dads, this might be a good book to read in June for Father's Day (in the US). That doesn't mean I have any idea what to read LOL!

Nadine had a great idea by adding To Kill a Mockingbird where it was a widowed dad raising kids. To that, Nancy Drew was raised by her father so any of those mysteries would work.

Yes I read that book this year (used for "non traditional education") and it would be perfect for this.

Landline seems like it will work for this, and I've enjpyed other things by Rainbow Rowell, so I''ll probably go with that.

If you would like a classic, Little Dorrit has a father as a rather hopeless primary carer, and Silas Marner does a better job as an adoptive father.

I might end up going with Fangirl even though I read it so much.

Books I recommend:
A Horse Called Bonnie by Barbara Van Tuyl (also works for the horse prompt, and there are several books in the series)
The Secret of the Old Clock by Carolyn Keene (obviously anything from this series)
Danny the Champion of the World by Roald Dahl
Last Seen by J.T. Ellison
Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate DiCamillo
