Some kids hear the truck before anyone else.
Hands Like Daddy's is a bedtime story for the children of tradespeople, the plumbers, electricians, carpenters, roofers, masons, and HVAC techs who leave before the sun and come home with worn boots and rough hands. Through a gentle call-and-response little ones can chant along to Who fixes it? Hands like Daddy's! it follows one small boy through the long day of missing his dad, and the warm rush of the moment the door finally clicks open and he's scooped up at last.
It's a book about the ache of waiting, the pride of watching, and the quiet wish every child knows: one day I'll have hands like yours. With warm, hand-drawn art and a rhythm built for reading aloud, it honors the hands that build and fix and hold the world, and the families who wait up for them.
Perfect for new dads, Father's Day, and any home where work means love. Book One in the Hands Like... series. Ages 3-7.
