Reviews
Size becomes delightfully relative when a father and child head out for their weekly city walk in this perspective-expanding picture book.--Publishers Weekly
"Hunt's brightly colored illustrations, full of expressive lines and textures, reflect the child's positive experience. Equally affirming is the love and care on display between father and child--even when interests temporarily diverge." --Cynthia K. Ritter, The Horn Book Magazine
A father's time and attention (and shoulders) give his child a boost in both stature and morale in this gentle story for readers ages 2-5.--Meghan Cox Gurdon, Wall Street Journal
