The Wish by Ken Elliott, illustrated by Whitney Gardner
This is the dad version of Love You Forever by Robert Munsch. A little girl walks through the park with her dad every day and he always had two coins for a wish at the fountain. The little girl grows up, goes to college, becomes a Paleontologist, gets married, and has a family of her own but she never knew what her dad wishes for. One day when she is old herself, she goes home, longing for simpler times, and takes a walk with her dad to the very same park and she finally finds out what her dad has wished for all these years.
The illustrations are black and white inside the book and you can color them in if you like. [picture book, ages 4 and up]

I am thinking of my dad.
Hi Leslie N,
My dad passed away and I’ll think about him too.
My dad is no longer with us but we are also celebrating my husband with presents and his favorite foods.
Hi Minta,
I love celebrating holidays with favorite foods! Hope he had a wonderful Father’s Day! I made tapas for my husband; both our fathers have passed away too.
I went out to eat with my dad
That sounds so nice Laura!
