My dad is big and strong, but ... : a bedtime story / by Coralie Saudo ; illustrated by Kris Di Giacomo ; [translated by Claudia Zoe Bedrick].
"Every night it's the same old thing, with dad refusing to go to bed. He wants to play, read stories, even sleep with me, and when he makes his pleading face, I always give in and read him another story. But that's it, since enough is enough. When it gets really tough, I tell myself "Have courage. We're almost there." A boy's playful account of trying to put his dad to sleep gives children a delightful heads-up on what a pain they can be at bedtime, while affirming the tender bond between father and son. A joyful, sweet, laughter-inducing book that children will clamor to read again and again!"-- Provided by publisher.
