Could the same thing be true of a Grimalken that dances on the green edge of town, or a certain dad whose neck is ticklish? Young children will be eager to join in Molly and Dad’s lyrical, lighthearted bedtime game. Guess what that one thing is!

Molly and her father play a bedtime game that shows how much they love each other.

Editorial Reviews

School Library Journal
PreS-K-Molly stretches out the going-to-bed routine with a question-and-answer session about various creatures-a dinosaur, a polar bear, a crocodile, the mythical Grimalken, and, of course, Dad. They all have the same special important quality-they love their babies. Her father's answers have a lyricism and poetry that is appealing, but the format, awkwardly set in the present tense, kills the rhythm of the text. Also, Pow fails to give Molly her own voice. When it's her turn to talk about Dad, the sophisticated rhythm of her speech doesn't seem genuine. Andrew's ink-and-watercolor illustrations have people and animals cavorting over the spreads with exuberant energy. In thumbnail sketches around the text, a dinosaur juggles an egg, a polar bear does handstands, and Molly is in four places at once. The full-page close-ups of parents and offspring are warm and whimsical. Unfortunately, the stifling structure of the Dad says/Molly says format, and the tedious repetition of such sentences as "She's thinking, then she thinks some more, and, as she thinks, Dad pretends that he's thinking even more," will lose a read-aloud audience and bore independent readers.-Jane Barrer, Washington Square Village Creative Steps, New York City Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.

    Enjoy it again & again.

    We love the playful inquiry of the little girl & her dad. Its a fun story & my daughter now says, 'Tell me one thing about...' inviting us to share funny bits of info & trivia with her. The story is real and genuine & continues to lure us into reading it again & again. I'm only writing this now as I came back to buy it for a friend with her own inquisitive Molly & was surprised there weren't other comments. We gifted this to my husband for a Father's Day gift. Its been a real treat.
