Giant Sized Butterflies on My First Day of School

$19.00

Justin’s third picture book, featuring the award winning illustrator Chuck Groenink, is a heartfelt picture book about the lengths a father will go to in order to comfort and protect his child. On a wintry walk in the twilight, a father and child’s antics come to resemble those of playful polar bears. As they tumble through the snow, explore icy caves, and push against the wind, Dad is a constant source of reassurance, comfort, and even a cozy ride home.
