I’m Glad You’re My Dad, a new title in the ‘I’m Glad…’ series from Black Dog Books, is an interactive book designed to be completed by a child and given as a gift to Dad. Full of affirmations and ways that love is shared, there are opportunities for a child to draw and write about their relationship with their Dad. From riding Dad’s shoulders, to playing sport in the back yard, there is something for every child/father.
I’m Glad You’re My Grandpa features a grey-haired bespectacled Grandpa with just a few wrinkles. As with the others in this series, it is designed to be personalised by a child and given as a gift. There are opportunities to detail the things built with Grandpa and the funny things that Grandpa does. Although some ‘Grandpa’ activities are listed, there is plenty of room to add the unique features of a particular Grandpa/grandchild relationship.
I’m Glad You’re My Dad and I’m Glad You’re My Grandpa follow the format of previous titles in this series. The books are small and almost square, soft-back and strongly coloured. Illustrations are stylised and engaging. Children can express the love for their particular father/grandfather in whatever way suits them best, in colouring, drawing, writing or all three. A great keepsake, and a novel way to capture memories. Recommended for 4-7 year olds.
