I received an advance review copy for free and am leaving this review voluntarily. Thank you Yulinda Blake Cook and RABT Books Tours and PR. I'm excited to be a part of this tour.
I admit it, I am a daddy's
girl through and through. I went places because my dad was going. I have
fond memories of helping my dad tinker on cars (not that I have any idea what I’m
doing or what the tools are called). I copied him and would tinker on cars without
my shirt on as well. It was the 70s after all and I was young. My oldest friend
thought I was a boy at first because of my short hair and no shirt.
We had that awkward stage from
puberty through young adulthood. Despite it, I knew he’d always be there. Now
in my 40s, I think we are closer than ever. He’s taught me a lot over the years,
and I appreciate the quality time we spend together. Whether it be on the phone
or in person, he is still the person I go to first when I’m trying to figure
out the best approach.
Because of these memories,
Polly’s Special Day resonated with me. This is a charming story of a girl, her
dad, and the memories they shared. I love that this book is full of teachable moments.
This book is beautifully illustrated and colorfully engaging. I think your
little one with love this! I recommend adding it to your reading routine.
