Knoted by Kimani
07 July 2025

When Father's Day approaches, Nia's heart feels heavy. While her classmates excitedly make cards and plan surprises, Nia wonders how to celebrate a day meant for someone who isn't in her life.

With her blended family of mom, stepdad, and stepsiblings, Nia struggles with mixed emotions: Why should she care about Father's Day when her biological dad isn't around to receive her love?

As the special day draws near, Nia becomes aware of the caring father figures who have been there all along - her patient stepdad, who helps with homework; her uncle, who never misses her birthdays; and her grandfather, who shares stories of her heritage.

Through Nia's journey, children will discover that family love comes in many forms and that Father's Day can be a celebration of all the special people who provide fatherly love, guidance, and support. This heartwarming story reminds us that family isn't defined by biology alone but by the people who show up and stay present in our lives.

I Hate Father's Day is a perfect book for children in blended families and those navigating complicated feelings about absent parents.
