Bookroo's summary

In a whimsical day, a little girl sees her dad transform into a bear, monkey, crocodile, and more. From morning grumbles to bedtime stories, each moment is an adventure. But amidst the playful chaos, it's the simple, loving presence of her dad that she cherishes most. Discover the magic of everyday life through a child's eyes in this heartwarming tale of imagination and love.

From the publisher

My daddy is a great big bear. He gets out of bed and grumbles and grouches, scratches and yawns! This charming picture book for younger children portrays a day in the life of a dad and daughter in a single-parent home, as they get up, have breakfast, go to school, go swimming, make dinner and prepare for bedtime. Dad is a great big bear, a silly monkey, a crocodile, an octopus and, at bedtime, a scary monster for a little while - but in the end it’s Daddy being Daddy that the little girl loves best.
