My Dad

(3) K-3 Browne's brief narrative is a paean to fathers everywhere. Full-color illustrations depict the daring dad in a variety of roles, from wrestling giants and walking tightropes to playing soccer and dancing--always in his plaid robe. The whimsical illustrations show Dad with fins and a tail when his son brags, "he can swim like a fish," and small visual non sequiturs add a humorous seek-and-find component to the book.
