About the book
A Dad Can . . .
From viral foster and adoptive dad Peter Mutabazi and the New York Times–bestselling author of Be Kind, Pat Zietlow Miller, comes a heartwarming picture book about the extraordinary yet ordinary ways in which dads show up for the children in their lives.
What can a dad do?
A dad can see you. When you smile, a dad smiles back. Like your face is the best thing he’s seen all day.
A dad can know you. When you’re confused, a dad teaches you. Bit by bit. Until everything makes sense.
A dad can celebrate you. When you try something new, a dad claps for every step you take.
Most of all, a dad can love you, no matter what.
Written by Peter Mutabazi, aka Foster Dad Flipper, and Pat Zietlow Miller, with art from Tamisha Anthony, A Dad Can . . . is a tender-hearted ode to dads and families who come together in all kinds of ways—the perfect gift for father's day or any-time celebrations of the beloved male figure in our lives.
