Testo aggiuntivo
"[Gator Dad's] a winning combination of warmth, humor, and heart." —Publishers Weekly "Lies' acrylic illustrations are filled with small details to notice, especially the labels on cans and boxes, but what is most evident are the feelings these four have for one another. Dads, squeeze the day with your own children just as this one does." —Kirkus Reviews "The content of the story will pull listeners in and keep them engaged. This is great fun as a read-aloud, and early readers will enjoy the challenge of independent reading as well." —School Library Journal
