Great Message In a Charming Book

This book takes me back to Sundays with my parents. Every parent will remember those times when their parents spent real, quality time with them. My kids really enjoy the story also, and while we're reading, we're getting in some real, quality time ourselves. Great Message!

A charming tale with a life lesson - make time for your children

I checked this book out of the local library and my 3 year old daughter absolutely loves it. The story follows a weekly ritual between a father and his young son - they go to a neighborhood diner every Friday for breakfast, just the two of them [mommy and baby stay home] and along the way they pass by people in the neighborhood and observe the various activities that go on around them.

The illustrations are charming, and to me, nostalgic, as it brought me back to my own childhood when my mother used to take me to the weekly fresh market. The sights, sounds and smells of those weekly visits have remained with me to this day.

In its own sweet, simple way, this book reminds us of the importance of making time for our child/children in this constantly humming, busy world. Highly recommended!

Every Friday, every night

Our 20 month loves this book. He asks for "Friday" every night. He likes to name the things happening on each page.

Very sweet

I love this story and the pictures. I gave it to my husband for Father's Day. He really loves it too. Great message.

Beautifully Illustrated

This book is a throwback to gentler times. My son thinks that the boy is him and the father is his own. It even looks like the two of them, and they have, indeed, gone to a diner together on occasion. Just a sweet story of a son anticipating the time he has with Daddy.

No day is better than Friday!

Friday is my favorite day.

All week long, a boy and his father look forward to their Friday ritual?breakfast at their favorite diner. The leisurely walk through the neighborhood is just as good as the pancakes at the end.
Dan Yaccarino?s bright, distinctive art style and sweet, simple story about father-son bonding make Every Friday an all-around crowd-pleaser. The weekly tradition will appeal to children who have similar routines with their parents, and kids who don?t have such a tradition will be asking their dads to start one! It?s a perfect gift book, too?just in time for Father?s Day.
