How many ways can dad show his love? He can lift his son high in the air, gather him close for a ride down the slide, make funny faces to ward away tears and fly him around "like an airplane that swoops." Together, they'll roll in the leaves, go on the swings and roar like lions. Best of all, the verse offers fathers plenty of opportunities to play as they read - to tussle and hug and to make silly sounds and expressions. And that means kids will want their dads to share this with them over and over again. This book offers a delightful celebration of the bond between father and child!
