What does your daddy do?

A must-have gift for fathers and grandfathers, to show just how much you love and appreciate them, whatever they do!

Every kid loves show and tell! But when all the kids at school proudly tell the important things their dads do, Tina pretends her dad is an astronaut, but all the other kids point out they know he's a garbage man.

Tina comes home from school crying because Rangjit's dad is a TV actor, Peter's dad is a rock star, Emma's dad is the captain of the Australian soccer team, but Tina's dad is just a garbage man. Tina doesn't understand why her daddy doesn't do something important.

But Tina's mum soon makes her realise that all the things he does with Tina, like playing games and reading at bedtime, makes him the best dad in the whole wide world!

A wonderful warm story about acceptance and the importance of fatherly love, complemented with delightful illustrations with Australian animals depicting all the different families.
