Synopsis

Introducing Bing classic picture books to younger readers in this attractive board book edition, perfect for sharing on Father's Day - and throughout the year! Ted Dewan has created a series that focuses on the dynamic between toddler and parent, and that speaks to them both equally, about life as a toddler and life with a toddler. With short, repetitive texts, bold, bright artwork and appealing characters, Bing offers both parent and child an enjoyable reading experience and a simple, reassuring guiding principle - that, whatever happens, it's just a Bing thing, a normal occurrence, and nothing to get upset about. Bing is making something for Daddy. He loves his daddy as much as he loves making shiny, feathery, sparkly things. But Bing will have to be very careful with that big bottle of goo...

About this title

From the Inside Flap:

IN BING: SOMETHING for Daddy, Bing makes a special picture with lots of sticky goo, colors, sparkly things, and paper. But when Bing is ready to add the sparkles, the goo bottle clogs and then . . . explodes! But don’t worry, Bing. It’s no big thing. Making something for Daddy—it’s a Bing thing!
