Review
Animal Dads is the sort of book parents may appreciate as much as their children." --The New York Times Book Review
"As animal fathers have been overshadowed by the numerous books featuring animal mothers, this unique selection helps balance the science shelves for young children." School Library Journal

Thoughts on Animal Dads
I just wanted to share a couple of thoughts on my newest book ANIMAL DADS. This is one of those books that is a "gift." Someone gave me the idea for the book and once I sat down to write it, it just sort of poured out of me. I guess I had a lot of thoughts and feelings about Dads stored up inside me. What is special to me about the book is that each statement refers both to animal and human fathers. I worked hard not to glorify dads, but instead to present them as they really are, imperfect but special nonetheless. I hope that the book serves both as an affirmation to children and as inspiration to adult readers.
