In this follow-up to My Dad Is Big and Strong, BUT..., a boy describes a typical Sunday at the zoo with his eccentric father ("I try to explain that it's still too early for ice cream, but Dad rolls around on the ground...red with rage"). Readers will delight in observing this childish grownup, captured in angular, semi-surreal art.
