Bookroo's summary

From the publisher

Here’s a sweet story that’s perfect for Father’s Day promotions about a builder and his son, and the best part of their day–coming home and spending time with each other! Bertie wants to go with his dad to work at the contruction site–but he’s too young, and he has to go to school. While he’s there, he does eveything that he can to be like his dad! He paints cranes during art, climbs to the top of the jungle gym to see the tower that Daddy is building, and builds his own tower out of boxes. After Daddy picks him up, Bertie tells him all about his day and what the best parts were. Daddy listens carefully and then says how close it was to all that he did, too. But Daddy also says that the best part of his day is being home with Bertie, and Bertie agrees.
