My Daddy is a Mechanic

He comes home with oil on his hands and a story she cannot picture.

Your child knows the smell of the workshop and that cars go in broken and come out working. This book fills in the middle, in words she can hold on to.

When she asks her daddy what he does all day, he shows her: the car up on the ramp, the wheel that comes off, the spanner that fits exactly, and the engine that coughs and then purrs. Nothing in this story is dangerous and nobody crashes. A warm, calm read-aloud about fixing things and not giving up on them, paced for bedtime.

Inside this book

A thoughtful gift for a mechanic in the family, for Father's Day, or for any small person who already loves anything with wheels.
