Following the success of such Mother's and Father's day books as I Love My Mum and Kisses for Daddy, Tania Cox and Lorette Broekstra have paired up to create What Makes My Mum Happy and What Makes My Dad Happy - two gift books that explore both childhood and parenthood through beautiful illustrations.
What makes Dad happy? When I'm just being me, or buzzing like a bee; when he builds me a tower and I pick him a flower; when he watches me swing and listens to me sing. What makes your dad happy?
TANIA COX has written several popular picture books, some of which have been published internationally. Her stories are perfect to read aloud to a very young audience and often feature alliteration, repetition and engaging story-lines that encourage young children to join in. LORETTE BROEKSTRA lived in The Netherlands for eight years, where she worked as a freelance illustrator, before returning to Australia in 1996. Lorette has since written and illustrated many popular picture books, including a series featuring Hugo the Elephant.
