Continuing with the Father's Day theme here on the blog, Little Miss C has been sent a couple of lovely books to review with her Daddy. Firstly, My Dad! by Steve Smallman and Sean Julian.
In this absolutely adorable book we see a small cute bear cub with his Dad, and all the things they do together – from cheering each other up when they're sad or upset to building sandcastles and giving each other huge cuddles. It shows that not all dads can do everything perfectly, but all dads are amazing for the variety of things that they can do and everyone's dad is very special to them.
The rhyming text flows really well and makes it a lovely book to be read out loud to a child. I found myself loving the illustrations in this book. They're beautifully drawn, full of little details and also, like the text, full of humour too – something which I know LMC and her dad both share.
The day this book arrived to review I was away so LMC got to share it with her dad for its first read, and I understand that both of them really enjoyed that. It really does sum up that wonderful relationship between a child and their father and it does leave you with a warm and fluffy feeling after reading it. Perfect for Father's Day.
