Daddy Will Be There — Lois G. Grambling

The young narrator of this heartfelt picture book can do many things on her own. She can play in her backyard, attend a friend's birthday party, and go to kindergarten. Each activity leads her farther away from home, but faith in her father's presence at the end of the day never wavers. I know Daddy will be there, she says with confidence. Lois G. Grambling and Walter Gaffney-Kessell have collaborated to create a warm and encouraging story that young listeners will readily embrace.
