Seven picture books about dad

June 12, 2010 by Paul Banas Leave a Comment

Here’s an idea: give dad a new picture book he can read to the kids, in which the dad is the star for once. Here are 7 new ones that feature dads of different type and are good for kids 3-8:


Daddy Calls Me Doodlebug


Oh, Daddy!


Stars Above Us

My Father Knows the Names of Things

Your Daddy Was Just Like You


The Fathers Are Coming Home
“
My Father Is Taller Than a Tree

The only hard thing about these kinds of books is not getting too sentimental when you see how your child reacts to the story and his or her relationship with his or her daddy. Please don’t cry in front of your kids.
