Meet the author
Jack J Henry is dad to four wonderful sons, a teen mentor in his local community and a volunteer for various charities. His life has been dedicated to helping others and ensuring everyone has someone to talk to in their time of need.
In 2023, his youngest son left home and he decided to put pen to paper and create his first book about his experiences of being a dad to four teen sons. Throughout his book, ‘’ The Ultimate Teen Self-Care Handbook: Mastering Social Skills, Puberty and Personal Growth for Boys,’ he recalls the wild and crazy moments, along with the impacts that puberty brings to each teen boy. His care, empathy, and guidance shine throughout every page he writes, creating not just a book, but a companion for teen boys to navigate this eventful period of life.
Jack’s second book, ‘The Best Dad You Can Be: Your Guide To Embracing the True Meaning of Fatherhood,’ was created for all of the new dads in the world. When Jack’s eldest son knew he was about to become a dad for the first time, there was a long and deep conversation about his fears of responsibility, of being good enough, of knowing how to be a dad, and concerns of living up to societal and Jack’s expectations. Jack reflected on this amazingly open and fear-driven dialogue and, in his true Jack style, decided to create his second book to help not only his son, but every single man who has the privilege of being called a dad.
Jack’s soul writing purpose is to ensure that, from boys to men, each male understands the journey of life he experiences, embraces the joys of being male, forms outstanding male bonds and strong male relationships, so that he too can be a great male role model for others.
