Description
He's all right, my dad. He's as strong as a gorilla and as happy as a hippopotamus. He's a great dancer, a brilliant singer, he's fantastic at football and he makes me laugh. A lot. But that's not all that's great about my dad...Anthony Browne's warm, hilarious, witty and very personal tribute to Dad (and to dads everywhere) is now available as part of a brilliant mini paperback and mug giftset.
