Book Guide

My father is taller than a tree,

but sometimes he looks up at me.

We walk together in the park.

I hold his hand when it gets dark.

When I grow up and have a kid,

we'll do all the things 

that Dad and I did.

In this tender tribute to dads everywhere, lyrical rhymes capture heartwarming moments shared between thirteen diverse father-and-son pairs. Everyday activities, like bike riding and raking leaves, become a reminder that life's simple pleasures can offer the greatest rewards.
