Penguin Papa
If you’re looking for a role model of a father
figure, then go no further than Antarctica where there are plenty of dads
who go to great lengths to care of their young. That’s the subject of The Emperor’s Egg (Candlewick
Press), a great
book by Martin Jenkins for children ages 5 to 8. Of course, we’re talking
about penguins, not people, but you and your kids will get the point: dads
are an important part of their kids’ lives. Using bright illustrations and
clear, accessible language, you’ll read about how a father can sit on an
egg in the freezing cold for two months-straight. Top that,
pops!
