When Papa Comes Home Tonight    by Eileen Spinelli & David McPhail Order:  USA  Can Simon & Schuster, 2009 (2009) Hardcover     Reviewed by Lindsey Freitas Ten years after When Mama Comes Home Tonight was published, a new book with the same charm and sweetness is born - this time focusing on the love of a papa. 'When Papa comes home tonight, dear child, (I promise - not too late) you'll hear me whistling up the road. You'll meet me at the gate.' What is every child's dream? To have a day with their daddy in which all attention is on them, right? This little boy's daddy promises to spend the whole day with him - they're going to play bold knight and dragon, fix his wagon, cook and wash up, and read a bedtime story together. And papa keeps his promises, as evidenced in the warm illustrations and smooth prose. A perfect book for papa to read with his little one! When Papa Comes Home Tonight shows a father's love for his child and teaches the importance of time spent together to daddies and children alike.
