‘My daddy is a great big bear. He gets out of bed and grumbles and grouches, scratches and yawns!’

This charming picture book for younger children portrays a day in the life of a dad and daughter in a single-parent home, as they get up, have breakfast, go to school, go swimming, make dinner and prepare for bedtime. Dad is a great big bear, a silly monkey, a crocodile, an octopus and, at bedtime, a scary monster for a little while, but in the end it's Daddy being Daddy that the little girl loves best.
