5.0 out of 5 stars My daughter loves this book, April 14, 2011

This review is from: It's the Best Day Ever, Dad! (Hardcover)

My 20-month old daughter loves book. It is one of the first books we read in the morning. She seems to love the illustrations. There is a lot going on so the book really keeps her attention. I ask her where things are like dog, ice creame, carrot and she locates and points. I love also love the illustrations and the overall story. I would buy this book again at full price if I had to.

It is a happy and refreshing little story.

This review is from: It's the Best Day Ever, Dad! (Hardcover)

My 4 year old daughter loves this book. She has her Daddy read it to her every night. She likes it when he replaces the names in the book for her name, her baby sister's name and the dogs name. I bought it for her when I was pregnant and she loved talking about the younger sister in the book and thinking about what things she will do with her younger sister. I also liked that it was a day where the Dad did everything with the girls because I had quite a few of those when the baby was first born so my daughter enjoyed reading about a day where a Daddy could do all the things mommy usually does while mommy has a day to rest. I think it is a cute book. Not sure why other reviews are so negative. I even bought a few for gifts for my friends who have 2nd babies on the way.

It could have been written by anyone. If Brooke Shield's was not the author, this book would not sell. However, reading to your children is always important... even if the story isn't that great.
