Come celebrate the adventurer lurking in every grandad, pop and pa

Come celebrate the adventurer lurking in every grandad, pop and pa

My Pa is not a quiet Pa,
a sit-and-read-the-news Pa.
My Pa is a Wild Pa –
and Wild Pas are lots of fun.

Praise for Wild Pa

This is an hilarious romp written in rhyme that leaps off the pages... Right from the front cover you know this will be a story of fun and frolics that will engage young readers from the get-go.
