What Mommies Do Best/What Daddies Do Best

Written by Laura Numeroff and Illustrated by Lynn Munsinger
Daddies can do lots of things, like bake you a birthday cake, play with you in the park, and take you trick-or-treating. But what do they do best? Mommies can do lots of things, like teach you how to ride a bike, sew a loose button on your teddy bear, and read you a cozy bedtime story. But what do they do best? The answer is made perfectly clear in this irresistible flip-book celebration of parents and the everyday things they do.
