Unwrapping the story
This is such a sweet story. A little girl realizes her daddy is not feeling well as a cold is brewing inside of him. His nose is red, his eyes are sleepy and he starts sneezing. She recognizes that he is not feeling well and takes it upon herself to become daddy for the day! "Taking Care of Daddy" is part of Bright Start; a touching new series of board books which combines charming stories with adorable illustrations to nurture emotional intelligence and this book does just that.
This loving little daughter reads to her daddy, becomes his snuggle bunny at nap time, and tends to his every need. The book is teaching a lovely life lesson on empathy to wee ones. Adorable illustrations are kid-friendly and relatable. The 10 page board book will be well received by that age group. The little superhero helps nurse her daddy back to health because right from the get-go she empathises with his malady. It's a win-win situation for both and a celebration of love and caring. Highly recommended.
