My Daddy And Me - Amy E. Sklansky and Ard Hoyt

My Daddy And Me
Amy E. Sklansky (Author)
Ard Hoyt (Illustrator)
Scholastic
ISBN 9780545218337

This board book is a lot of fun, with a series of illustrations and short story lines about what children enjoy doing with their daddies. There are 4 or 5 different sets of father and child, with the two doing different things around the seasons, like a picnic, a day at the beach, camping, raking leaves, splashing in the rain, skating in the winter park and just being together. The illustrations are a classic pen and ink style, reminiscent of Norman Rockwell's work. It is a wonderful little book. Whatever the weather we go together.
