Daddy Honk Honk

Description

An arctic fox adopts a baby goose in this heartwarming read-aloud that's perfect for Father's Day When Aput the fox finds an abandoned goose egg, he has no idea what's in store for him. He doesn't know anything about babies and he certainly doesn't know what to do when the gosling hatches and mistakes him for its daddy. So he decides to find the gosling a home. But with each page turn, Aput learns more about caring for a baby and, with a little help from his friends, he discovers what a baby needs most is love.

As a kid, Rosalinde loved to draw, write plays and create sets for her puppets. So, after high school, she went to study art at the cole Nationale Superieure des Arts Decoratifs in Paris. Since graduating, she has written and/or illustrated numerous children's books. She lives in Versailles, France.

Praise for Daddy Honk Honk "Perfect for Father's Day, this sweet tale shows how love makes a family. A great choice for one-on-one and small group sharing."--School Library Journal "Aput's evolution from helpful bystander to committed parent makes for a lovely narrative arc, but even more touching is Bonnet's (the Ella and Penguin books) portrait of a lively, caring community." --Publishers Weekly "The focus is on the developing relationship between father and child; the fox's expression when the egg hatches is absolutely priceless and worth the cover price alone. A sweet adoption tale." --Kirkus
