Dear MS.Bang,
I applaud you for creating a story that not only has African American lead characters but also shedding light that this little girl has a father who is very active in her life. That may be a sensitive subject for some people and also seem non existant for some children. But in your story you shined a light on a family that truly loves and cares for each other. There aren't many books that have just a father as one of the main characters and no mother in it so when first reading this story I immediately questioned the mothers where abouts. The vibrant colors and the simple countdown to the little girls bedtime is definitely a story I will share with my daughter.
I thank you Ms. Bang.
