This is a sweet book about a father-and-son weekly routine that inspired my husband and son. And, for that reason alone, Every Friday, by Dan Yaccarino, will always have a special place in my young family's history. Dan, watch out, if we ever meet I may smother you with fangirl smooches.

Another very noteworthy attribute about this children's picture book: it was honored by the New York Times as one of the best illustrated children's books of 2007 for its lovely vintage-y drawings.
BTW- I gave Every Friday to my husband for Father's Day last year.

SubscribeThe Hotspot originally started out as a monthly-or-so feature written by our favorite storytellers. Usually products or services were highlighted that tickled us. Over the past year delightful innovations and introductions in the maternity and parenting space have increased, and we feel we need a space to share our discoveries with you. Daily news stories on parenting also inspire us to communicate with you. As such, the Hotspot is now the Alpha Mom daily blog. Finally!
