Daddy Will Be There

24 pp. January, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-688-14983-9
(4) K-3 Whether she plays alone in her back yard, visits a friend, or goes to kindergarten, the young narrator never worries because she knows that "Daddy will be there" if she needs him. The simple text conveys how her father's steady presence gives her the confidence to take on bigger and bigger challenges, though the watercolor paintings are stiffly drafted.
