This book is Fallon at his whimsical best—no late-night monologues, just dad jokes and animal rebellion. The premise is ridiculous (who teaches a fish to say 'DADA'?), but that’s the point. It’s a celebration of parenthood’s absurdity, with vibrant art that pops. I gifted it to my brother, and now his kid 'quacks' at him sarcastically. Mission accomplished? Maybe too well.

Fallon’s 'DADA' book feels like a love letter to chaotic parenting. Imagine a dad so determined to win the 'first word' race that he’s bargaining with a llama—that’s the vibe. The animals’ defiance escalates (the horse’s eye roll kills me), and it’s all brightly drawn with cartoonish energy. As a preschool teacher, I’ve seen kids howl at the pig’s sass. It’s also low-key genius for language development—the rhythmic 'DADA' refrains encourage participation. Bonus: the board book version survives toddler tantrums.

Pure dad humor in paper form! Fallon’s book is basically a meme come to life: animals trolling a desperate father. The duck’s 'nope' is my spirit animal. Short, sweet, and designed for exhausted parents who need a laugh. Pro tip: Read it in a Fallon-esque over-the-top voice for maximum effect.

Jimmy Fallon's book 'Your Baby’s First Word Will Be DADA' is this hilarious, heartwarming take on fatherhood, wrapped in his signature goofy charm. It’s a children’s picture book where he tries—and fails spectacularly—to teach farm animals to say 'DADA' instead of their natural sounds. The illustrations are absurdly funny, with cows, ducks, and even a grumpy goat stubbornly refusing to cooperate. It’s less about plot and more about the playful struggle between dad and baby, making it a great read-aloud for little kids who love repetition and silliness.
What I adore is how it captures that universal dad desperation to be acknowledged first, even if it’s totally irrational. The book’s simplicity works because it leans into Fallon’s comedic timing—you can practically hear his voice in the exaggerated 'DAAAADAAA' pleas. It’s not deep literature, but it’s perfect for bedtime giggles. My niece demands it on repeat, and honestly, I don’t mind; the sheep’s deadpan 'nah' gets me every time.

A board book that weaponizes dad energy. Fallon’s charm translates perfectly to the page—it’s like 'SNL' for toddlers. The goat’s dramatic 'NEVER' still cracks me up. Ideal for parents who want to laugh instead of cry when their baby yells 'DOG' first.

I'm screwed.If I want to keep my dream job, my new (and way-too-attractive-for-his-own-good) boss says I have to score an interview with one of the legendary Fontaine brothers of Hollywood.I know three things about the Fontaine brothers:1) that they're Hollywood royalty,2) that all four of them are ridiculously, mind-numbingly sexy,and3) that they never, ever give interviews.My only chance is to seduce one of them. The only problem? Historically speaking, I'm way more likely to put my foot in my mouth (or generally make a fool of myself) than charm the pants off anyone.That's where my way-too-sexy boss comes in. He might hold the fate of my job in his hands, but he's also totally willing to teach me the art of seduction. I only hope I can survive his lessons. . . Due to explicit scenes, this steamy romantic comedy is rated 18+.The Secret to Seduction is created by Ember Casey, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

His songs were better when he had a broken heart.
That sentence would change my life after my dream job was dished to me on a shiny, silver platter.
All I had to do?
Hurt Nash Pierce enough to get him writing good music again.
The pop icon’s songs were no longer the phenomena they used to be. His team needed another breakthrough album—like the first he’d penned, using his heartbreak as fuel.
The plan was simple: I’d go on tour with him as a backup dancer…and make him fall in love with me. I was hired to inspire—to become embedded into every lyric he wrote. Then, I was to set fire to it all—to destroy every feeling we hoped he’d develop for me.
It seemed simple enough. Easy, even.
I didn’t expect to be consumed myself—to see so much in the man displayed in the tabloids. I didn’t foresee falling for him. It didn’t occur to me that, while attempting to break his heart, I might just shatter my own.
Most of all, I never thought I’d fight so hard to hold on to a relationship that had always been founded on goodbye.

Fake it 'til you make it has been the motto I live by since my mother died.
I'm also doing a really bad job at the making it part.
The night we met, I was at my lowest.
But you gave me a reason to feel happy again.
For the first time in over a year, I was optimistic.
You and I? We're the same. Don't form attachments. Follow the rules. Don't dream of a future.
Too bad our hearts wouldn't listen.
And this storm we're going through? The one that threatens to rip us apart?
It doesn't care that I'm falling for you.

While I was eating, I came across a post on X.
[Found out my girlfriend has a nasty disease and is pregnant. I want my buddy to be the one left holding the bag. What should I do?]
I was just about to comment that the poster was out of his mind when I scrolled down and realized people were actually giving him advice.
[That's easy! If you two are close, just invite him on a trip.]
[Get your girlfriend and your buddy drunk in the middle of the night, then have them stay in your buddy's room. When the time comes, catch them in the act. You can break up and push the kid onto your buddy to take responsibility…]
Reading that comment, I couldn't help but laugh in disbelief.
I was about to show my friend this mind-blowing post so we could rant about it together when he suddenly looked up at me and asked, "Tyler, are you free this weekend? How about we go on a trip?"

My life shattered before my eyes: my fiancé with my stepsister, my career in ruins. Then, Alexander Lockwood appeared. The reclusive billionaire offered me a way out; a contract to be his wife.
It was the perfect deal. He needed a partner to secure his empire. I needed the power and resources to rebuild mine. Our marriage was meant to be a transaction: cold, logical, and mutually beneficial.
I just never read the clause about what happens when you fall in love with the man who’s hiding an unforgivable secret.

When did Jimmy Fallon release his book?

Jimmy Fallon's first book, 'Your Baby’s First Word Will Be DADA', came out in June 2015, and it was such a fun little surprise! I remember stumbling upon it in a bookstore and cracking up at the concept—it’s this playful, interactive picture book where Fallon tries to get babies to say 'DADA' instead of 'MAMA' through silly animal sounds and illustrations. The timing was perfect, too, since he was already a household name from 'The Tonight Show', and the book felt like an extension of his goofy, family-friendly humor. It even hit the New York Times bestseller list, which isn’t shocking given how much parents and kids adored it.
His follow-up, 'Everything Is Mama', dropped in 2018, doubling down on the same charm. What I love about Fallon’s books is how they don’t take themselves seriously—they’re clearly labors of love, packed with his trademark energy. If you’ve ever watched his show, you can practically hear his voice while flipping through the pages. They’re not groundbreaking literature, but they’re warm, relatable, and perfect for bedtime laughs. Plus, the illustrations by Miguel Ordóñez are downright adorable. It’s the kind of book you gift to new parents just to see them grin.
