Description

Represents a variety of fathers, with lots of hair and little hair, making cookies and buying doughnuts, camping out and taking naps, and hugging and kissing their children.

Description

The Daddy Book celebrates all different kinds of dads and highlights the many reasons they are so special.

Whether your dad walks you to school or walks you to the bus, whether he wears suits or two different socks, whether he has a lot of hair or a little, Todd Parr assures readers that no matter what kind of daddy you have, every father is special in his own unique way.

With his trademark bold, bright colors and silly scenes, kids will learn that while no two dads are exactly alike, "all daddies love to hug and kiss you," and that is what is so special about them! Perfect for young children just beginning to read, The Daddy Book is designed to encourage early literacy, enhance emotional development, celebrate multiculturalism, promote character growth, and strengthen family relationships.

An adorable, vibrant book celebrating the differences of Dads and the similarities-- all Dads love their kids! Todd Parr's stories never fail to make readers laugh, smile, nod, and sometimes cry due to their simple, powerful messages.
