My Dad The Hero

FICTION. A touching yet amusing story about a boy's admiration for his dad and acceptance of his limitations. T is part of a happy family, and he loves everything about them -- especially his clever dad. When T's teacher arranges for his dad to come into school to talk about what he does for a job, T should be as proud as punch. But there's one problem: his dad doesn't speak English. T worries about what to do, but his dad is cleverer than he thinks. When he comes in to school and does an amazing puppet show, T realises that being the same as other people is not everything. His dad really is a hero!

A young child starts off this laugh-out-loud picture book by listing all the ways his dad is NOT a superhero: he can't leap tall buildings, run faster than a speeding bullet, or shoot webs out of his wrists. Each spread illustrates how Dad doesn't have super powers but is still a hero at heart. The sweet ending depicts all the cool—if not super—activities Dad does do with the child, like throwing a baseball, playing checkers and going toy shopping. Ethan Long's spot-on artwork perfectly accompanies this super funny and super sweet story. Praise for Ethan Long: "A nicely illustrated tale that speaks volumes about the bond between a dad and his son...a great story that will be perfect as a gift for any dad or son." —The New York Journal of Books
