Description

A vividly illustrated day in the life of a little boy and his daddy, this charming picture book paints a gently ironic comparison of how the day unfolds for each of them. While the toddler is filled with glee as he tackles each new challenge, the dad faces his day with a more grown-up combination of perseverance and resignation. Despite this, he finds himself inspired by his son's open-hearted optimism. The book shows the unvarnished acceptance of the travails of being a parent, in a funny and upbeat style.
