“It was times like these when I thought my father, who hated guns and had never been to any wars, was the bravest man who ever lived.”

Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird
Happy Father’s Day! This quote, from the classic novel, To Kill a Mockingbird, is spoken by protagonist Scout on her father and one of our favorite literary fathers, Atticus Finch. Who are some of your favorite literary dads?
Also, don’t forget to get your dad a Father’s Day gift! A gift from the NYPL gift shop is the perfect way to tell your dad how much you appreciate all of his fatherly duties!
