Jim Panzee tries to celebrate Father's Day by bringing his dad breakfast in bed, but his dad is already up.  He decides instead to make breakfast for Grandpanzee.  Grandpanzee doesn't like a fuss.  Jim learns where he gets his own grumpiness.  After exploring many humorous different ideas on ways to show appreciation, all three of them decide on the best way to celebrate Father's day.

Father's Day Fuss is a fun way to think about how you would celebrate your own father.  I loved all the silly antics of the characters.  I was amused with Lang's comical illustrations.
