Summary:
Daddy is Tired is a children's picture book about a dad who wants to rest while his son would rather play. Dad hopes for a little nap, but his son just wants to play.
This book was written by Cinco, at five years old, in one of his own quiet time sessions. Of course his dad didn't get to rest either, he had to help.
My Thoughts:
This story is a really quick and easy read. So it won't take long to read it to your kids and it would also be a great book for a child that's learning to read. My 3 year old daughter loved it and she said that it was funny. As a parent I can really relate to the father in this book, I know that when I'm tired my kids NEVER are! ;)
This book was written my "Cinco" when he was 5 years old and he is now 7. All royalties go straight to his college savings account. I think everyone with kids, grand kids, nieces, nephews, etc. should pick this book up because it's a win-win. Your kids get a fun new book and you are helping this child to be able to go to college!

*I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Ha! I know all about "Daddy Is Tired.". What parent doesn't. My 2-year-old seems to have boundless energy. I swear, that kid doesn't have any speeds other than off and full bore. If he's, he's going full tilt. It.can be a lot of fun, but it can also make you want to rip your hair out.
