My son's favorite book when he was young.

So, normally I don't put things up on Goodreads after re-reading old picture book favorites. But this one is special. It's super (super, super, super) simple. But my brother and I read it endlessly with our dad when we were little. Somehow it came up tonight, so my brother pulled it out and the three of us read it together again (I'm 19 and my brother is 17).

Happy memories. Parents, please, read to your kids! Even ridiculously simplistic books like this one. They'll remember forever.

Very simple book about a boy and his dad and their fishing trip.

Everything for my daddy and me.
