This is children-are-precious-little-angels-who-can-do-no-wrong propaganda. The children think Daddy is a monster when they're misbehaving and he's disciplining them. The old lady who bought ice cream for the children after the father says no is the worst. "Oh but they're so cute, give them ice cream." Listen, Myrtle, they may be cute now but you don't have to deal with them later on when they're hopped up on sugar from having two large ice cream cones because you butted in to something that's not your business. I didn't like the writing style and the illustrations were bad. I can excuse the story itself, seeing as it's supposed to be from a child's perspective, but the fact this is a children's picture book geared towards children, the illustrations could be better. I can't see any child picking up this book and being excited to "read" it.

How was this a Reading Rainbow book? It's terrible and the art is dreadful, confusing and unappealing, especially for children.
