My Daddy

Three friends, Sophie, Sue and Molly, spend their afternoons at the park, chatting and taking turns on the swings. Their conversations don't always run smoothly. When Sophie and Sue start bragging about their fathers, each insists that her own dad is the greatest anyone could ever have. Sophie's father is said to win at everything, while Sue's is described as someone who is never frightened. The claims grow more outlandish with each exchange, from being a superhero to being a super-dooper hero, and even Father Christmas. Molly stays quiet through all of it, leaving readers to wonder what her father does.

The lively, cartoon-style illustrations and playful rhythm of the text make this a good choice for reading aloud and sharing with a group of young listeners.
