Praise for When a Dad Says "I Love You" by Douglas Wood and illustrated by Jennifer Bell

"Charming color illustrations with cartoonish, evocative, and whimsical touches portray anthropomorphized rabbits, pigs, elephants, and more enjoying familiar activities, including a pancake breakfast and kite flying. ... Great for bedtime sharing." --Booklist

"Sketched in pencil and colored digitally, Bell's muted illustrations avoid the saccharine, instead homing in on the individual relationships and quiet moments shared between each father and child." --Publishers Weekly
