John Bendall-Brunello.
In this rhymed paean to fathers featuring an all-animal cast, the dads do everything from fixing things to capably multitasking in the kitchen. Neither the rhymes nor the droll watercolor images are original, but it's refreshing to find the father-child relationship given the sort of attention traditionally reserved for mothers.
