Customer Reviews

Best father/son book in my opinion!

I Love You Daddy is a wonderful story about a father encouraging his son to start doing things that he's now old enough to do. Little bear appreciates the encouragement and the praise he receives and tries to tell his father that he loves him. This is a wonderful book for children (especially in the 2 - 4 year old range) and helps remind them of all the things daddy does at a time when they might be focusing on mommy. It also encourages daddy to read at a time when he might be feeling a little bit unwanted. This is the third time I've purchased this book as it makes a memorable gift!

Wonderful book.

A great book for helping strengthen a relationship between a Daddy & his child. My daughter loved this book so much, this was actually our second purchase because we wore the other one out. I started reading it to her when she was 9 months old. She's 3 1/2 now and stil loves it!

A nurturing & encouraging relationship with Daddy

My son asks for this and the companion book, "I love you, Mommy" most of all at bedtime. It teaches good lessons about listening to your parents and how a child's Daddy can encourage and motivate them do accomplish something they might not have thought possible, or were afraid of trying. It is also a great shot in the arm for Daddies themselves and a reminder that being a great parent means offering such support and love and just being there. That is what's most important for the readers; we started reading these two books to our son at only 9 months old and he loved it. It mirrored himself and he related to his parents nurturing him. He's now two and still asks for them more than any other book. We now ask him to tell the story to us and he really gets into it animating the little bear in his escapades and what the Daddy bear (or Mommy) is teaching. The artwork is very eye-catching and has a surprising amount of detail that will allow your child to gradually discover new things keeping the whole experience fresh for a long time. Highly recommended and believed to be important. Enjoy.

One of the sweetest!

One of the better ones to feature Daddy as the parent. Wonderful illustrations (one of my favorites is the cozy cave they found!) The little bear is spending the day with his father, who encourages the bear he CAN climb, get honey from the tree, find a place where they can sleep, etc. The little bear is so happy realizing what he's capable of, and feels love for his daddy all along the way...at the end, daddy bear tucks little one to sleep in the cave he found. A lovely book.
