Brings back memories
This is a great little book with beautiful illustrations. I bought this for my son as he is getting married soon and I'm his best man so I will pass this on to him in a private moment on this day. He's forty years old but the sentiments last a lifetime.

Beautifully written and illustrated. Great gift idea.
This book is one of my son’s favourites. He’s almost 2. It’s so sweet and great to read with Dad. Lots of animals to point out. The illustration is beautiful. Great Father’s Day gift or gift for a new father to be. Large font for older kids to follow along.

Beautiful pictures and cute story for new dads
Very nice and pretty pictures. Given as gifts to the fathers in our nicu unit at the hospital for Father’s Day in June.

Quite boring to read to a kid
Kids like stories. Not a bunch of short 4 liner poems. This is just a book with a different poem and a picture on each page. Quite boring. The language is also difficult for kids to understand.

Perfect gift for Father’s Day
I ordered this book for my son’s dad as one of his Father’s Day gifts. It’s his first Father’s Day and I know he’ll really love reading this to our son. I read through it first to make sure it was a decent book and I thought it was adorable.
