A new addition to the picture books about fathers. In this one, by Catriona Hoy and Mal Webster, a child starts by saying what Mummy and Charlotte (older sister) and Grandma think Daddies are for, but of course they’re all wrong. Daddies are for wild things: pillow punching, chasing and scaring, whirlpools, tidal waves and messes, playing pirates, swinging. Then the punchline which children will love. “Sometimes Daddies are not wild. Sometimes Daddies are for cuddles and falling asleep on my pillow.” Enthusiastic and expressive pictures complement the wild text. Sure to be popular.
