This whimsical and intriguing picture book explores the different roles of fatherhood in the animal kingdom. Readers will learn about various animal dads and their many different parenting skills: baby-sitting – an emperor penguin dad watches over the eggs for nine weeks while the mother searches for food; hunting – a wolf dad leads the pack on hunting trips and brings meat for new pups to eat; giving birth – a seahorse mother’s eggs hatch inside the dad’s special belly pouch. Sneed Collard’s concise, clear text and award-winning artist Steve Jenkins’s informative cut-paper collages reveal unique tasks that animal dads perform in raising their offspring.
