Bought for grandson

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 31, 2022

Verified Purchase

This is a sweet, short book about two dads spending time with their child. It’s short enough, and the pictures are colorful enough to keep my 7 1/2 month old grandson entertained.

Favorite book of our 2 dad family!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 8, 2011

Verified Purchase

Last December I was searching for papa-centric gifts to get our son's other Dad (who goes by "Papa") for Christmas, and let me tell you, it was slim pickings. This is unfortunate as a lot of two dad families go by the "daddy/papa" monikers. In addition to the papa stuff being few and far between, lots of it was for grandfathers. And while we may not be spring chickens, we ain't visiting Grandpa Land anytime soon. However, I did manage to find a few fun things, including a charming book about animal babies and their fathers called "Papa Papa", as well as this sassy "Who's Your Papa?" Papa Smurf tee shirt.

But the best by far was the book "Daddy, Papa, and Me" which has since become one of our favorite books to read to our son. It's a very straightforward, no-nonsense, non-preachy, day-in-the-life story of a child (cleverly illustrated so as not to be gender-specific) and his/her two fathers. It starts off with the child asking "Who wants to play with me today?," followed with spread after spread depicting things Daddy and Papa does with the realistically energetic toddler. Our favorite is the one with Daddy helping to "paint the sky" and Papa helping to bake a pie. (I'm Daddy, and an artist/graphic designer, and Papa is Italian, and a cook among cooks).

After a slew of other activities (throwing a ball, having a tea party, etc.) the book ends with a sentiment any parent of a toddler can relate to, regardless of the family's makeup. "Does anybody need a rest?" Daddy and Papa say "Yes, Yes, Yes!"

What appeals most to me about the book is that it doesn't try to make a case for this family, or celebrate that it's "different." There are plenty of other books for that. What it does celebrate is the joy of a child spending time with his parents -- learning, playing, and experiencing life.

Teaches Acceptance of Diferent Families without even saying it. Great!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 26, 2017

Verified Purchase

It says this book is for preschool age. My daughter is 5 months old and she likes the book. I want to instill acceptance of LGBT people and other disenfranchised people right away at whatever stage my child is in. I want her to know there are different kinds of families and no type of family is better than another. Yes, when she is older I will teach her more about LGBT rights. But now she delights at the pictures and the animated way I read the book. I hug her when reading the book. Its playful and fun, and I am teaching love from day one. The book is nice and simple and the baby and dads do what any family would do from the mundane to the fun.

the kind of same-sex family book we need more of

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 17, 2018

Verified Purchase

I really love this book, and wish there were more available like it. I think what makes this book different than other same-sex led family story books is that the fact that the baby has two dads is not the plot in and of itself. It's just a normal children's book, but there happens to be two dads. We want our son to see his family reflected in books but nearly all of the books featuring same-sex couple parents make such a central point of it. We don't need to have "The Conversation" every single night at bedtime. I appreciate having this book to have just a simple bedtime story that looks and sounds familiar to what our son knows to be family.

2-year-old loves it! Relatable for young kids, talking about the different roles their parents play in their lives.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 4, 2017

Verified Purchase

Our 2-year-old loves this book. Nicely written in rhyme and well illustrated. Of course it's really nice for him to have at least one book that shows a family like his, but I think it would also be good for kids in many types of family to show the different roles that each parent plays in their lives.

I read this to one of my charges in a cafe [Childminding] which caused a few eyebrows around to raise; however, this traditionally unconventional family is charmingly illustrated and the concepts raised are subtle and cleverly dealt with. Hearts melted as the book unfolded :D

Lovely book! It you're a gay dad you should have it at home. If you are a straight dad, you should have it too to teach your little ones that there're other kind of families out there as good and as respectful like any other.
