Herbert the Lion by Clare Newberry
Have you ever wondered if you are the only sane person in your family? Fear not Matt Koven's Real Men Raise Their Kidstravels beyond typical childhood memoir accounts. This humorous collection of boyhood experiences will prove that your family is not the most dysfunctional. Journey from the West Indies to Europe running throughout America's heartland and back covering the entire Deep South, in a non-stop account of a passionate and loving father's attempt to raise his family.In modern American society, it still remains unusual for fathers to spend large amounts of time with their children; however, in the last decade children and fathers have begun to spend valuable time with each other. Real Men Raise Their Kids humorously explores the results of the emerging trend of fathers taking time from their work to actively partake in the childrearing process. Exposing his family's most turbulent moments Koven elucidates the benefits that result from fathers actively participating in his child's youth.
Clare Turlay Newberry (1903-1970) was born in Eugene, Oregon. She studied art at the University of Oregon, School of the Portland Art Museum, the California School of Fine Arts, and La Grand Chaumiü¾Ž†”¼re in Paris, France. She received the Caldecott Honor for four of her books: T-Bone, The Baby Sitter (1951); Marshmallow (1943); April's Kittens (1941); and Barkis (1939).
In Ms. Newberry's own words, Every word of marshmallow is true, even to the drawing of them wrapped in each other's arms. I know people find this hard to believe, but the bunny was so little and was so convinced that Oliver was his mother, what could Oliver do but be his mother the best way he could?
