My dad is beautiful

Summary:

This book tells the story of all the things a child likes to do with his Dad, and why Dad is beautiful.

Comment:

A book for the very young, the text is sparse but shows the child’s father in a range of different situations – cooking for the child, playing with the child – all of which make the father beautiful to the child. The use of the word beautiful assigned to Dad here is of significant because of its stereotypical connections with females.
