Illustrated by
Daniel Howarth.
Dad decides to accept his kids' invitation to have a "wild Father's Day." They imitate animals, running like cheetahs in the park and swimming like dolphins in the pool. A spark of fun is added to the repetitive text through the illustrations showing family members as animals but still wearing their trademark accessories (glasses, hat, or pink sneakers).
