Reviews

  • "Inspired when he one day found his father’s old dressing gown and felt instantly close to him, Browne wrote this lovingly illustrated tribute to a child’s pride in his father. It instantly appeals: most children see their parents as superheroes even when their feats of heroism are simple everyday tasks"

    Junior

  • "This is a perfect title for children to share with their dads. With a very minimal text and wonderful full page illustrations, this is a title that will warm the hearts of readers of all ages"

    Through the Looking Glass

  • "The pictures are extraordinary and unforgettable and celebrate dads in a way few books do"

    Independent

  • "For sheer illustrative wit, Anthony Browne is unsurpassed"

    The Times

  • "Delightfully simple but visually impish"
