Just in Time for Father’s Day- The Children’s book DADDIES DO IT DIFFERENT {AUTOGRAPHED COPY GIVEAWAY WINNER ANNOUNCED}

June 12, 2012 by Molly

DADDIES DO IT DIFFERENT by Alan Lawrence Sitomer, illus. by Abby Carter (Hyperion, April 2012) is a silly look at the different way fathers approach parenting.


This story had not only my little ones giggling, but myself as well! Some of the funny things the Daddy does brought back fond memories of my own childhood. Cutting up at the grocery store, funny foods at breakfast, giant water puddles at bathtime, even fun on the playground. Now that I’m grown, I watch my own children and my their daddy make similar memories.

This story and it’s silly tale show how Mommies and Daddies might do things differently, but in the end they both love their children just the same.
The bright, colorful illustrations and clever witty writing of this book is sure to hold the attention of children for the entire story, while they laugh away!

Now, for a little Father’s Day fun for your kids, you can click this link to access a FREE downloadable Father’s Day card featuring art from DADDIES DO IT DIFFERENT.

An extra special thanks to Disney Hyperion books,
because they would like to give away one autographed copy of the book DADDIES DO IT DIFFERENT
(U.S. and Canada addresses) to my readers!
