Let's Have a Daddy Day
My Thoughts
This book is simply beautiful. The story reminds us of something we have decided to do with our kids. Each child when they arrive to 4 years old, have the possibility to go away with daddy for a period of time and spend time with only him. One on one time – fishing and going things the child wants to do. They go to the RV and eat what the child decides, do things the child wants to do and so on. I would strongly suggest to every family to do this with their kids.
The illustrations are beautiful and flow well with the text of the story. The kids enjoyed looking the frogs and so on. My oldest even commented that it looked like the kind of days they spend with their dad during those one-on-one days.
Let’s Have a Daddy Day is available everywhere, even at amazon.ca.
