01

《The Daddy Book》

“Some dads take pictures of you. Some dads draw pictures of you. Some dads wear suits. Some dads wear two different socks.

Some dads like to cover you with sand... ... “ This is what Dads look like in 《The Daddy Book 》by New York Times best-selling author Todd Parr.

The book emphasizes that no matter a father's hobbies or personality, the most important thing is the love he shares with his child.

02

《My Dad》

“My dad wears a long robe all day. My dad isn’t afraid of anything, even the Big Bad Wolf. He can jump right over the moon, and walk on a tightrope (without falling off). My dad is as big as a house and soft as my teddy. He is as wise as an owl, making me laugh a lot. “This hilarious, strong, and gentle dad comes from "My Dad" by Anthony Brown.

Every Dad must read《My Dad》 with their child to discover the unique self in your child's eyes.

03

《Papa, Please get the moon for me》

A little girl named Monica wanted to play with the moon, so she asked her father to bring the moon to her. The father did not laugh at his daughter's whim, nor did he have the promise of the crown, but just spoiled support and accompany her.

This is deep and silent father's love from《Papa, Please get the moon for me》 written by Eric Carle. 

04

《Why I love my Daddy》

"I love my father because he is handsome; I love my father because he always protects me and gives me love; I love my father because he plays with me"

The picture of the warm interaction between father and son in this large volume《Why I love my Daddy》， conveys the love of the father in human society and shows us the warm relationship between father and son in nature from the perspective of the baby.

05

《Guess how much I love you》

"I love you right up to the moon.", "I love you right up to the moon — and back." This is dialogue from《Guess how much I love you》, The Big Nutbrown Hare and Little Nutbrown Hare are in the competition who love each other more.

Love is not an easy thing to measure, only in our hearts we know how far, how high, how thick love.

06

《HERE WE ARE》 

This book《HERE WE ARE》is for children to understand the earth picture book.

The picture book has a broad perspective, allowing children to see the composition of the universe and the earth, understand the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers and oceans, various animals and plants, and present many microscopic details. It is a picture book drawn with child-like innocence and love, carrying warm paternal love, conveying a broad mind.

Daddies must read《HERE WE ARE》 with your children to establish their initial cognition of the world and self.

07
