A father and daughter spend a day together, hiking in the hills around their town. With no distractions, a bond can be built between them that can last a lifetime, in A Day With My Dad by Lance Waite. Lance followed up his debut with A Day with My Dad at The Beach, both aimed at children ages 2 to 6.

Lance wrote his books to encourage fathers to be more involved with their daughters, and to show his girls that even an ordinary day can be exciting when you share it with someone special. Both books are illustrated by Manuela Pentangelo, a member of the SCBWI who lives near Milan.
