My Review
With My Daddy is a sweet story about a little girl and the special bond only a daughter and father can share.
Spending time with her daddy, the little girl experiences many emotions like bravery, confidence, playfulness, but the best feeling of all is the one of safety that no one but her daddy can provide.
The illustrations are stunning. The way the illustrator depicts the father's large hands as the focal point of each page show just how big of an influence a father has over his child. The whimsical images along with the constant motion and a fun storyline easily captivate readers. With My Daddy is certain to become a fast favorite among parents and children alike.
I highly recommend picking up a copy.
