Summary: A girl and her grandma are planning a surprise birthday for her dad. They work on it on Wednesday nights because he isn’t home. They also eat hot dogs on these nights together. Her and her grandma read books and plan for the surprise. They’re making him a book! On Saturday morning dad came home and he was wished a happy birthday by everyone.

Characters: girl, grandma, girl’s family

Opinion: I thought this book was really cute. It’s always exciting when you learn how to read, and to show your parents what you have learned in school, no matter what it is, is exciting. Parents will always be proud of their children, so I think this was a great book to introduce to a class of beginning readers!
