My Daddy is a Silly Monkey Zusammenfassung

My Daddy is a Silly Monkey Dianne Hofmeyr

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.

My Daddy is a Silly Monkey Bewertungen

"Thompson's mixed-media-with-collage illustrations bring the fun to life, the daughter's joy and the father's exuberance more than evident on the page. Bright colors and a scratchy, splotchy style suit the topic, and observant readers can see details in the pictures that lead the child to think her dad is each kind of animal. Readers at home and at school will enjoy using this as a springboard for describing their own dads and the things they do together." * Kirkus Reviews * "Lovely pics and lots of giggles as we read it through. Perfect idea for father's day." * Let them be Small * "This warm and affectionate depiction of a day in the life of a single dad and his daughter is lovingly rendered in lots of splashy detail by Carol Thompson. The playful text works well with the energetic illustration; Dad is cheerful, fun and realistically exhausted by the end of the day, and the little girl is, again, authentically depicted as a whirlwind of activity." * Booktrust * "An imaginative children's story full of fabulous animal fun as a little girl imagines all the animals that her daddy can be like...Told from the perspective of a single parent dad bringing up a daughter, this is a fantastic little book that doesn't stray too far into 'Dads being daft' territory." * Read It Daddy! * "A joyful celebration of daddies everywhere with appeal and resonance for children and their parents too." * Books for Keeps 4 star review * "The text and images work well together, with the words weaving their way through the illustrations ... an entertaining picture book." * IBBY Link * "There's energy and exhaustion and plenty of love in this story , told by a gorgeous little girl who adores her dad." * School Librarian *
