My Father Is Taller than a Tree

By Bruchac, Joseph & Halperin, Wendy Anderson

Publishers Summary:
My father is taller than a tree, but sometimes he looks up at me. Mi papá likes to hear me sing. He’s very good at listening. Pop doesn’t need to buy me stuff. Just being with him is enough. Meet thirteen unique father-and-son pairs who come from diverse backgrounds and live in different places. Even though they are not all the same, their relationships show us an important truth: Even the simplest and most familiar activities become special when dads and kids do them together.
