Tony Bradman, "Through the magic mirror: the work of Anthony Browne", British Book News, 1984 Autumn [Children's Books], pp.2–5. This sweet picture-book tribute to fathers is narrated by a young child who describes his own dad, and all of his many amazing qualities. "He's all right, my dad," the text begins, going on to list this one father's many feats - he can jump over the moon, and wrestle giants - and other appealing characteristics. The story concludes with a declaration of love for dad, on the narrator's part, and a corresponding statement that his dad loves him...

The book uses some opposing ideas. For example, dad is both as big as a house and as soft as my teddy. Make up your own pairs of opposing images to describe the same person, animal or object.

Talk about

This is a heart warming and delightful book that is easy to read, it is about how a child views his or her Mum. Every child looks up to their mother and thinks they can do and be anything and that is exactly what Anthony Browne’s book is about. This book is a tribute to mothers everywhere and children under the age of 8 will find it witty and familiar. His recollection of the day itself is quasi-mythical, filled with the sort of symbols and portents that inflect his stories. "It was Easter Monday," he remembers. "I was playing rugby for the first time with the men's team, and my parents had come to watch. My brother was playing, too; I travelled on the coach with the other men; it felt like a real coming-of-age moment. The sun shone, we won, and afterwards we drank in the bar with my parents and all these heroes I'd been watching for years. I felt I was really pleasing my dad, being the kind of son he wanted. When he finished school Browne intended to become a painter, but being short of money he took a job as a medical illustrator, producing detailed paintings of operations for Manchester Royal Infirmary. After three years he grew tired of the job's repetitiveness and moved on to design greeting cards for Gordon Fraser. He designed cards for five years before he started writing and illustrating his own books. The Magritte of the pre-schoolers, Browne's illustrations are among the most distinctive and surreal of any children's artist.

Crafts and activities for kids

Browne and writer Annalena McAfee won the 1985 Deutscher Jugendliteraturpreis, Picture Book category, for Mein Papi, nur meiner! (The Visitors Who Came to Stay). He also won the Kurt Maschler Award "Emil" three times, which annually (1982 to 1999) recognised one British "work of imagination for children, in which text and illustration are integrated so that each enhances and balances the other." [15] Browne was a winner for Gorilla (Julia MacRae Books, 1983), Alice's Adventure in Wonderland (MacRae, 1988) and Voices in the Park (Doubleday, 1998), as the illustrator of all three books and the writer of two.

Compare this book with Gorilla by Anthony Browne, which has a similar theme. What are the similarities and differences? I absolutely adored this book as a child. I used to read it with my mum, and sometimes also my dad ( who would smile as we read it, know just how amazing his wife was for doing all the things she did, with minimal fuss).

The pictures are extraordinary and unforgettable and celebrate dads in a way few books do Independent In 2001–2002 Browne took a job as writer and illustrator at Tate Britain, working with children using art as a stimulus to inspire visual literacy and creative writing activities. It was during this time that Browne conceived and produced The Shape Game (Doubleday, 2003).

In fact, he avoids this book whenever he can. His expression looked doubtful whenever this book was read to him, like he wasn't too sure what exactly this book was all about. He is probably unable to associate his mum as the brown hair woman with floral prints all over, with drastic transformation of appearance from Lion to rhinoceros to a little kitten and butterfly and superwoman.My Dad by Anthony Browne is filled with creative illustrations with inspiring details. The picture book is a rich starting point for all sorts of creative projects. As Father’s Day is fast approaching in the UK it is also a very special gift for any Dad.
