Has anyone ever told you your daddy acted just like you when he was your age? And didn't it make you feel special?

In author Kelly Bennett's latest heartwarming picture book, Your Daddy Was Just Like You, a grandmother makes her curious grandson feel special by showing him photos of his dad when he was his age. She tells him there is nothing unusual about his likes, dislikes, temper tantrums and kiddie games, because his daddy did the very same things and acted the very same way when he was his age. His daddy was just like him.

This warm, fuzzy book by talented Kelly Bennett has all the makings of a children's classic. Its short, simple, laugh-out-loud sentences capture the unique humor and love between a father and his lively son. And artist David Walker's cute and sweet illustrations are a perfect match for this book, telling a big, big story of love, familiarity, and the unbreakable bonds of the family unit.
