Nelly Gnu and Daddy Too

Our toddler loves this book so much she has most of it memorized! Great book for bonding time with daddy ❤️

Bestselling author of the Llama Llama series, Anna Dewdney delivers a heartwarming, fun-filled children's story that will delight young readers as the author highlights the importance of family relationships and the influence of role models who we learn from in this heartfelt children's book, that's dedicated to her father. In the past, I have purchased several books from this series, and have watched many young readers enjoy the different stories that encourage social activity, while they learn and enjoy reading at the same time. Young readers have followed Llama Llama and Mama, and now a new adventure blossoms with daddy too.Nelly Gnu is very fond and proud of her daddy as they engage in working as a team on creativity, while making a special project for Nelly. She listens to her father's ideas, and also helps him with the finishing touches. Nelly is excited to be a part of it, and she and her father are overwhelmed with joy at the final results. Nelly is happy to be daddy's daughter, a big sister to Baby Gnu, Mama's good helper, and Llama Llama's best friend.Anna Dewdney creates an inspiring story that tugs at the heart, the colorful illustrations compliment the story with adorable characters, who bring the story to life. Entertaining from beginning to end, delightful, and educational. A wonderful addition to a fascinating, enjoyable children's series, and a great gift for Father's Day. Highly recommended to teachers, parents, and child-care providers.

Great graphics and fun storyline. Love that it highlights dads.

My 4 year old really enjoys these books .

There is a wealth of books available about the special bond between family members, especially moms with their children. This was a nice portrayal of the bond between father and daughter.Pros:-Good length for 2 years. Sometimes it gets read twice in a row.-Solid board book, well constructed and holds up to toddler love.-For those who are reading other books in the Llama Llama series, recognizing the Nelly character might be a bonus.No Cons to list at this time.

What a wonderful book! My 21-month old daughter has always been very attached to me (the mother), despite the fact that my husband is an equal-time caregiver. We already owned a lot of books that celebrate the bond between mothers and children, so I was looking for a book that focused on the father-child relationship. My daughter loves this book, and my husband was very touched that I sought it out. Also, I find this book is the perfect length for her...some of the llama llama books are a little long for her age. Highly recommend!!

Our 3-year-old granddaughter loves this book. We got tired of checking it out of our local library, so we told her we were getting one for her very own. She was so happy!

I got this book for my girls ages 4 and 2 to add to their Daddy books collection. There are so many great books that highlight the relationship between a mom and their kid(s) so I want to make sure Dads are represented as well. My girls LOVE Llama Llama. We had all the board books and now we have all the longer hardcover stories too. The author had a way of writing that just really seems to speak to my girls. I would highly recommend this for any little kid's bookshelf!

I bought this for my grandaughter Nelly as a little gift during lock down. It is a very positive story and beautiful graphics, a joy.

I was wondering why all the Llama Llama books are about Llama Mama only, no Llama Dad. But this book is not about Llama Llama's father, it's about someone else, and it's not as cute or sweet as the Llama & mama books. My kid knows the Llama Mama books off by heart but she wasn't too interested in this one.

Good quality sweet book for parents and kids to read together. Bought as part of a Father’s Day gift and it was perfect! Nice story.

We adore this book, it's now in our pile of books that we read every night.

This book is delightful. My son-in-law is a stay-at-home dad, so I'm pleased to have a book recognizing the nurturing father!
