A young energetic girl wants to give her very best dad the perfect present. He helped her in so many ways that she couldn't just draw him a picture. She came up with a marvelous idea. On Saturday, she took her dad fishing. That didn't work out, so they played baseball instead. That wasn't great either, so they tried other things until they went home exhausted. She was sad until she realized that she had given her dad the very best gift of all. 

Pop's perfect present is a delightful, funny story. I enjoyed the energy and antics of the young girl and the goodness of the steady father. The illustrations are fun and heartwarming.
