Dads can do a lot of things. Of course, there are also lots of things they can't do: they can't cross the street without holding your hand; they can't swing, only push you; they can't go to sleep without checking under your bed for monsters and getting a good-night kiss. And of course, they can never stop loving you. Douglas Wood's What Dads Can't Do, with Doug Cushman's delightful illustrations, is a touching and entertaining look at dad behaviour from a kid's perspective. A celebration of fatherly love, this engaging volume is perfect for reading aloud.
