Illustrated by
AG Ford.
A singsong first-person rhyming text accompanies warm watercolor-and-ink illustrations of pairs of fathers and sons as they enjoy knitting, cooking, and gardening together and navigate minor conflicts (a broken lamp, a skinned knee). A welcome positive portrayal of men relating sensitively and modeling activities beyond the traditionally masculine.
