In a kingdom far, far away, a time and place has been set to choose the best father of all. In verses, each one of the animals, from a chick to a firefly, and a frog to a penguin, tells why their candidate is the best one. Find out the reasons why everyone’s father is the best in the world. The weasel and its child like nothing better than spending time together. And since the weasel kid always wants to do what the big weasel does, everything takes a little longer—but is much more fun! They play and work, dream and cuddle, and fool around. And although the two of them quarrel at times, their love for each other is ever-present! A great book to teach comparing and contrasting, and opposites.
