Review

"My Dad Is A Great Man is written by Zehavit Tzarfati and illustrated by Mindy Liang. Within its pages you will find adventure, excitement, compassion, love, and the admirable characteristics of a father. A young boy is allowed to play in his dad's study. Filled with excitement and the need to explore, the boy begins to snoop around and finds a few of his dad's belongings. As he handles and examines each item, the boy imagines how each item serves its place in the study. The father explains to his son that each item did not serve the purpose the boy had imagined, but the boy loves his father anyway, and still thinks his dad is a great man.

Zehavit Tzarfati and Mindy Liang have created a wonderful, heartfelt and loving story, with very colorful, vibrant pictures. This story will hold a place in any reader's heart who knows a young boy who thinks the world of their father. I loved the extreme visions the boy had thought each item he found was once used for. A young boy that admires his father would think he did great things such as dig for dinosaur bones because he has a hat that resembles the one an archaeologist would wear. It is a very sweet story that every father and son should read together. I was very excited when I found at the end of the book a link to an activity kit for parents to do with their children. A very cute read, and awesome activity link" - Reviewed by Michelle Robertson for Readers' Favorite

Zehavit Tzarfati lives in Tel Aviv, Israel. She holds a BA in Psychology and Education, and a Masters in Public Policy.

Her tales are original and all of them feature eye-catching illustrations which aid young readers in understanding the text within each story.

Her books are written simplistically, yet not too simplistically as to be deemed childish by slightly older children. Ultimately, Zehavit offers wonderful reading material to parents who enjoy reading to their children and, at the same time, to children who are learning to read for the first time.

A Lesson in Understanding - What a "Great" Dad Means

Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2013

Verified Purchase

Nicely illustrated and very colorful, this 2013 kindle book is about a young boy whose imagination runs wild when he is allowed to play in dad’s study finds clues to dad’s life outside the home front. A picture of dad in a wetsuit means he fixes submarines for the Navy. A safari hat means he searches for dinosaur bones and takes them to the museum, and so on. When dad came home that evening, the boy approached him with his discoveries, only to find that dad performed none of the jobs he thought. Instead, dad rescues sea creatures caught in nets in the ocean, and is a ranger, saving wild animals from poachers, and so on.

In the end, the young boy realizes that his dad was much more important than he thought, because he helps others and is truly a great man. Real nice story, I would say for ages 2 and up. It also comes with a free memory game.

A Fun Little Read

MY DAD IS A GREAT MAN is a fun little read that follows a young boy as he puts the pieces of his Dad's life together like a jigsaw puzzle. It teaches about leaping to conclusions and the power of imagination and how much a parent's life can be a bit of a mystery to ANY child.

A great little book for all of you Dad's out there for the very next time your child asks you to "Read me a story!"

yours in storytelling,

A great gift

The book was sent to me as a gift by a friend of mine, for my young daughter. I appreciate it a great deal, and think that of all the books she could have chosen, this one is great. My daughter loves her Dad very much, and of course he likes to talk to her about everything he loves to do, just as the boy in the story talks to his Dad. And the free gift in the book itself is great, too!

My daughter liked this book very much and was also very happy with the free gift we received upon purchasing the book. I see there are other books available, written by the same author, Zehavit, and we look forward to owning a few more by her.

Great book with a great message. We all think we have the best dad in the world. I also thought my dad could beat up anyone else's dad, because I thought he was strong. Kids need to think highly of their dad.

When I `clicked to look inside' I saw the first illustration. It was enough to get me to want to buy this little book. I like the story, as does my son. My son loves his Dad very much too, and got to ask him about all the things that the little boy in the book discovered. Obviously my husband does as many great things, but it was great for my son to see what other Dads do.

The little boy finds different objects that belongs to his dad and assumes he is great because of this or that.... until his dad tells him what they really mean. Very nice book. Very quick read. Nice illustrations.

A really lovely story

I really enjoyed this book. It is imaginative and heartwarming.
I love the way the kid looks at his father, and the twist that shows that you can be important without being famous. A lovely book indeed!
