a celebration of the child parent relationship

I love this book. It reminds me of the joy of being with my own "Daddy" when I was a child. And my[...] son loves the book too. The enjoyment of this book's toddler is contagious as it is expressed both in the simple prose, typical of a young child, and reflected in the colorful pictures. I am buying a copy for my older brother for Father's Day, because I think it will be a sweet reminder for him of the wonderful connection he has with his daughter (even though she has now outgrown that innocent toddler stage). I strongly recommend this book.

As soon as the sun comes up this little toddler is ready for the day! She runs to find her dad and demands that he get up as well. From there it's off to the park with dad! She feels like she is flying when she is swinging high in the swing and when her dady picks her up and spins her around and around! The pictures were fun to look at. The story moved at a fast pace as well. Yes. Little children need to know that their fathers love them very much. This book reinforces the concept well. Playtime with daddy is away fun time in our family and this is a great book to read just before some daddy time!
