Daddy’s Sandwich

Pip Jones, Laura Hughes, illustrator Faber & Faber Softcover $9.95 (32pp), 978-0-571-31183-5

Intent on making a snack for her father, a thoughtful young girl creates a monumental sub, in Daddy’s Sandwich, from Pip Jones. Even Dagwood would be impressed when she decides to include everything that Daddy really likes, from slightly stinky cheese and jelly beans to pop-up books, jigsaw puzzles, and Mum’s bubble bath. Laura Hughes’s colorfully quirky illustrations complement the imaginative and lighthearted tribute to dads everywhere as the sandwich reaches epic proportions.
