Boys love to play with their dads. This book reaches out to fathers, asking them to engage with their sons in many and different ways, from the conventional building and fixing things, playing pirates and fun in the park; to the less conventional - star-gazing and cooking. In the boy’s imagination, chasing birds, visiting the zoo and sleep-outs in cubby houses quickly become enthralling adventures. Outlined watercolours show plenty of white space, putting focus on the action; their spontaneity and casual expression show how sharing fun comes naturally. The final page is sure to bring a tear to any loving father’s eye.
