Purchase options and add-ons

This whimsical and intriguing picture book explores the different roles of fatherhood in the animal kingdom. Readers will learn about various animal dads and their many different parenting skills: baby-sitting - an emperor penguin dad watches over the eggs for nine weeks while the mother searches for food; hunting - a wolf dad leads the pack on hunting trips and brings meat for new pups to eat; giving birth - a seahorse mother's eggs hatch inside the dad's special belly pouch. Sneed Collard's concise, clear text and award-winning artist Steve Jenkins's informative cut-paper collages reveal unique tasks that animal dads perform in raising their offspring.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 9, 2018
    Beautifully illustrated children's book focusing on species in which fathers are nurturers. For ages 1 up to 7, I'd say, as it includes interesting facts about childrearing among different species which older children might enjoy.
