A heartwarming celebration of the special relationship between a father and daughter from Instagram sensation Soosh.
Whether they're playing make-believe, making you smile, or warding off monsters under the bed, dads are always there when you need them. Debut picture book artist Soosh celebrates fathers with a gorgeously illustrated and moving story about the parent-child bond.
When Soosh first posted her initial series of images of a larger-than-life father and his adorable daughter on Instagram, fans from across the world immediately took notice with over 2 million views on a popular viral content website in a single week.
These illustrations now come together in a universally relatable story of familial love for parents and children to share.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Making her debut, Soosh introduces a loving dad with a red mullet, curly beard, and wide, sloping shoulders. His daughter, a tiny girl with long, dark hair, describes the ways he nurtures, teaches, and supports her: "He tells the best stories. He makes me feel cozy. He protects me from monsters under the bed." Soosh renders father and daughter in loose, stippled watercolors, capturing them in casual moments of togetherness cuddling on the couch, sewing a garment, cooking, peering through a telescope, or marking the child's height on the wall. Even when he is away, "he doesn't miss a single lullaby" by calling her on the phone. With great tenderness, Soosh conveys the many important roles that a father plays in a child's life roles that can change from moment to moment. Ages 4 8.
