The Daddy Book

By Todd Parr (Trade Paperback, 2010)

The Daddy Book celebrates all different kinds of dads and highlights the many reasons they are so special. Whether your dad walks you to school or walks you to the bus, whether he wears suits or two different socks, whether he has a lot of hair or a little, Todd Parr assures readers that no matter what kind of daddy you have, every father is special in his own unique way.

With his trademark bold, bright colors and silly scenes, kids will learn that while no two dads are exactly alike, "all daddies love to hug and kiss you", and that is what is so special about them! Perfect for young children just beginning to read, The Daddy Book is designed to encourage early literacy, enhance emotional development, celebrate multiculturalism, promote character growth, and strengthen family relationships.

Praise for Todd Parr:

* The I Love You Book was an instant New York Times bestseller

"Parr preaches the message of self-acceptance and tolerance of others." -- SLJ

"Parr focuses on acceptance and individuality and encourages readers to do the same." -- PW

"It's rare that a children's author appeals to adults, but when it happens, it's usually magic; Dr. Seuss, Shel Silverstein... Well, I've found another to add to the list: Todd Parr." -- Kansas City Star

The Daddy Book:
"The Byron Barton of feelings and relationships offers a gallery of Dads at work and play, all drawn with thick lines and intense, contrasting colors against monochromatic backgrounds. The message is one of unity in diversity." -- Kirkus

"Parr allows youngsters to see the similarities that many families share by recognizing differences." -- SLJ
