Product Description

A Lullaby for Daddy is the sleepy-time story of Rosie, an African American child. Rosie is a studio musician's daughter with a precocious aptitude for the keyboard and song. The story centers on bed-time ritual and the father-child bond that can be established during this unique time. This bond is strengthened through the form of lullaby, in which both father and child participate.

The story empowers children to feel they too have something to give. In addition, the book stresses a loving martial relationship with father as an active participant in child-rearing.
