Saturday, June 9, 2012


My brother is a wonderful father to my two adorable nieces: Addison (age 5) and Evelynn (3 weeks).

I bought the best Father's Day present for my brother: a copy of Luciana Navarro Powell's My Dad Is the Best Playground. This energetically illustrated board book features a jovial father who knows how to have fun with his son and daughter. On each page, the father "becomes" playground equipment: the highest swing, a long tunnel, a great climbing wall, a bouncy trampoline, and a merry-go-round. I predict my brother and his daughters will act out each page and reread it night after night.




Borrow My Dad is the Best Playground from your school or public library. Whenever possible, please support independent bookshops.

I am giving away one copy of My Dad Is the Best Playground.
