Sam and His Dad

‘When I grow up, I want to be like my dad.’ Sam’s dad is an artist, and Sam’s life is full of creativity, exploration and adventure. Serge Bloch’s semi-autobiographical picture book shows us life through Sam’s eyes, as he plays with his little brother, goes to the park, visits a farm, goes on holiday – all in the company of the long-suffering but affectionate Dad he loves so much. ‘Sam and His Dad’ is a joyful and funny celebration of ordinary family life, the little details that excite a child’s imagination and the quirky ways they interpret the adult world. It’s a book any child can see themselves in and relate to.
