National Geographic – Love You, Dad

 

love you dad national geographic

From National Geographic:

Happy *almost* Father’s Day! This year, National Geographic Books is celebrating all things Dad with our new book “Love You, Dad: A Book of Thanks.” The book features adorable animal photos combined with reasons why we love dads – including a tiny chipmunk shoving a whole peanut in his mouth with the caption “Love you, Dad, for (occasionally) letting me stuff my face.”

Find this cute book at Amazon or other bookstores.
