In Popsicle Fish, Murphy reflects on lessons from his everyday experience with his young sons. There's a lot for fathers to take away from his essays. Several gave me goosebumps. All made me feel more human. The book reminded me that children are great teachersthey can help us know ourselvesand the most simple interactions with them can be profound. I remembered times of connection with my own children, and vowed to find ways to stay connected. For that, I thank Michael Murphy and his sons. Fred P. Piercy, Ph.D. Program Director at Purdue University Department of Child Development and Family Studies

Reading Popsicle Fish is like browsing through your family album, declaring, "Yes, I remember that!" and discovering that the father he discusses is you, the children in the stories are yours, and the message is for everybody. Like all family albums, you will hold onto this one forever. Dr. Paul Coleman, Psy.D., Clinical Psychologist Author of The 30 Secrets of Happily Married Couples
