  Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to Radialized Children's Story Hour. As a reminder,
• 0:05
  Radiized a reading service intended for people who are blinder
• 0:09
  of other disabilities that make it difficult to reprint material.
• 0:13
  Today we will be reading from various books on Father's Day.
• 0:17
  Your reader today is Diane. Our first book is called
• 0:21
  A Perfect Father's Day and it was published by Clearing Books,
• 0:29
  an imprint of Hooton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company. It's a
• 0:32
  copyright year of nineteen ninety one. The author is Eve Bunton.
• 0:38
  Who's there. It's Susie, and I'm taking you out for
• 0:41
  a Perfect Father's Day. Susie said, First, we'll go for lunch.
• 0:46
  Good Dad said, may I drive? Certainly? Susie said, have
• 0:52
  a good time. Mom called As they waved goodbye. Susie
• 0:56
  chose where they'd eat. This is your favorite food, isn't it? Dad?
• 1:00
  She asked? Sure is? Dad said, may I pay? Certainly.
• 1:06
  Susie said, I think we'll go to the duck pond
• 1:09
  after lunch. Susie said, you like to feed the ducks,
• 1:13
  don't you, Dad? Sure do? Dad said, may I buy
• 1:17
  the duck food? Certainly? Susie said, And I think we'll
• 1:21
  go to the park after that. You like the park,
• 1:27
  don't you, Dad? Of course? Dad said, do you like
• 1:31
  the swings? Susie said, do you like the monkey bars?
• 1:36
  Do you like the merry go round? The giraffe's the best?
• 1:39
  I like them all? Dad said, do you want a balloon? Dad,
• 1:44
  Susie asked, Red balloons are my favorite. Dad bought a
• 1:50
  red one for Susie and a blue one to bring
• 1:52
  home to mom. Are you having a good Father's Day
• 1:56
  so far, Susie asked. Dad smiled perfect, But I think
• 2:00
  we should go home now. Mom will be waiting. Will
• 2:03
  you hold the balloons while I drive? Certainly, Susie said.
• 2:08
  Dad closed the car window so the balloons wouldn't float away,
• 2:13
  and so Susie wouldn't float away either. Mom has a
• 2:16
  special cake for you. Susie said. It's chocolate with chocolate
• 2:21
  frosting and yellow writing, and it says Happy Father's Day,
• 2:24
  and there are four yellow candles, one for every year
• 2:27
  you've been my dad. It's a surprise. I like surprises,
• 2:32
  Dad said. Mom was wearing her prettiest T shirt, the
• 2:36
  one with sparkles that Dad liked. Their prettiest cloth was
• 2:40
  on the table so was the cake Dad gave Mama
• 2:44
  kiss and the blue balloon. My goodness, He said. That
• 2:48
  cake's chocolate has chocolate frosting and yellow writing. And this
• 2:52
  is a happy Father's Day. And there are four yellow candles,
• 2:55
  one for every year I've been Susie's dead. What a surprise.
• 3:00
  Dad liked surprises, Susie to Mom. I like chocolate too,
• 3:05
  Dad said, And he blew out the candles and cut
• 3:08
  a big piece of cake for each one of them.
• 3:11
  We did all of Dad's favorite things and went to
• 3:14
  all his favorite places. Susie to Mom. It has been
• 3:18
  a perfect Father's day so far, perfect, Dad said. May
• 3:23
  I have a hug? Certainly, Susie said. Our next book
• 3:28
  is The Berenstein Bears We Love Our Dads. It was
• 3:32
  published by Harper Festival and imprint of Harper Collins Publishers.
• 3:37
  Berenstein Publishing Incorporated has a copywriter of twenty thirteen and
• 3:43
  the authors are Jan and Mike Benstein, sister brother and
• 3:47
  honey Bear loved their papa. They loved him very much.
• 3:51
  After all, he was always there for them. He baited
• 3:53
  their hooks when they went fishing, He threw them fly
• 3:56
  balls when they played catch. He was there spooler on
• 4:00
  their way to the top of Dead Bear Hill. He
• 4:03
  carried them on his shoulders when they got tired, and
• 4:06
  rushed them to the doctor when they were hurt. He
• 4:08
  told them funny stories and corny jokes. He read to
• 4:12
  them at bedtime, tucked them in and kissed them good night. Yes,
• 4:17
  the Cups certainly loved their Papa Bear, but sometimes they
• 4:21
  took him a bit for granted, after all, he was
• 4:24
  always there, they never even noticed some of the things
• 4:27
  he did. Like working. Papa worked very hard. He worked
• 4:31
  in a shop all day making furniture. He worked fixing
• 4:34
  things up around the house. He worked doing chores like
• 4:37
  mowing the lawn or shoveling snow or taking out the trash.
• 4:42
  It's true that Papa enjoyed working, but he enjoyed getting
• 4:44
  credit for it sometimes too. One warm spring morning, not
• 4:48
  long after Mother's Day, the cups were talking about what
• 4:51
  they would do for Father's Day. Mama was listening to
• 4:55
  them nearby. Let's make Papa big family album with pictures
• 5:00
  of us doing stuff with him, said sister. We just
• 5:03
  gave Mama an album like that for Mother's Day, said brother.
• 5:07
  Oh yeah, said sister. Honeybear was looking out the window
• 5:10
  watching Papa mowing the lawn. Papa working. She said, what's that, Honey,
• 5:16
  asked Mama, Papa working, said honey, pointing hmm. Said Mama,
• 5:22
  Honey just had a good idea. She did, said brother
• 5:26
  and sister. Yes, said Mama, your papa works very hard.
• 5:30
  Be a nice gift if you cubs did his jobs
• 5:32
  for him on Father's Day and let him relax. Now
• 5:37
  that they thought about it, it was true. Papa did
• 5:40
  work all the time. He could use the rest way
• 5:43
  to go, Honeybear, said sister and brother, giving her high fives.
• 5:49
  The cubs decided to make gift certificates that Papa could
• 5:53
  cash in for jobs they would do all that day.
• 5:56
  They followed him around, spying on him. They checked off
• 5:59
  the jobs he did on a clipboard. Carrying wood, says
• 6:03
  sister carrying wood, check said brother check said, Honey, painting
• 6:08
  the garage, said sister painting the garage. Check said brother
• 6:14
  check said Honey replacing loose tree bark on treehouse, said
• 6:18
  sister replacing loose tree bark check said, brother check said honey.
• 6:27
  The cups followed Popa the next day too. They didn't
• 6:30
  put furniture making on their list because they didn't know
• 6:34
  how to make furniture. But they did check off things
• 6:36
  like trimming the rose bushes, putting up fence rails, and
• 6:40
  cleaning out the basement. That evening, they made a gift
• 6:43
  certificate for each job. The gift certificates looked like this,
• 6:50
  with the gift certificate good for one job of washing
• 6:55
  the car, taking out trash, cleaning the workshop, long planting grass.
• 7:02
  The cubs couldn't wait for Father's stay to arrive so
• 7:05
  they could surprise him with their special gift. On Father's Day,
• 7:10
  the cubs woke up right and early. They waited until
• 7:14
  nearly six am before running into Mom and Papa's room
• 7:17
  and jumping on the bed. Happy Father's Day, they yelled,
• 7:21
  Uh oh, what, said Papa sleepily. Is it Father's Day?
• 7:26
  Of course it is, said the cubs. Open your present.
• 7:30
  They gave him a big given what Papa thought it
• 7:32
  was a card? Why, thank you, he said, But when
• 7:35
  he opened it, the gift certificates spilled out. What's this?
• 7:39
  He asked. Their gift certificates you cash in for us
• 7:43
  to do your jobs, explained brother, you can just relax
• 7:46
  all day. What a thoughtful gift, said Papa. It was
• 7:50
  Honey's idea, says sister. Thank you, Honey, said Papa, giving
• 7:55
  all his thoughtful cubs a big hug. I think I'd
• 8:01
  like to spend the day just watching football, said Papa.
• 8:04
  It's Father's Day, so Mama, you can do whatever you like. Wow,
• 8:09
  said Papa, suddenly down in his easy chair in front
• 8:11
  of the TV. I could get used to this. Papa
• 8:15
  cashing his gift certificates and the cups set to work.
• 8:19
  Their first job was washing the car. They got out buckets,
• 8:22
  soap cloths, and the garden house. They scrubbed and washed
• 8:26
  and rinsed, but the car still seemed a little dirty. Papa,
• 8:31
  they called, we're having trouble. Can you help us? Of course,
• 8:35
  he said, looking things over, you just need more elbow grease.
• 8:39
  I'll show you so. Papa and the cups scrubbed and
• 8:42
  washed and rinsed together. When they were done, the car
• 8:46
  was bright and clean and shiny. You go and relax now,
• 8:50
  Papa said. The cups will do the rest. Their next
• 8:54
  job was clean up the wood chips and Papa's shop.
• 8:56
  The cups got out dustpants, brooms, and a shop vacuum.
• 9:00
  And set to work. They swept and cleaned and vacuum
• 9:03
  but the shop still looked a little dirty. Papa, they called,
• 9:09
  we're having trouble. Can you help us? Of course, he said,
• 9:13
  looking things over, you just need to give it more.
• 9:16
  I'll show you so popping. The cups swept and cleaned
• 9:20
  and vacuumed together. When they were done, the shop was
• 9:24
  spick and span. You go and relax now, Papa said
• 9:28
  the cups, we'll do the rest. Their next job was
• 9:31
  spreading grass sea on the bare spots in the lawn.
• 9:34
  The cups got out rakes and bags of sea. Brother
• 9:37
  raked the hard packed earth while sister and honey spread
• 9:40
  the sea. But they soon got tired. They were still
• 9:44
  there was still a lot of bear spots left. Papa,
• 9:48
  they called, we're having trouble. Can you help us? Of course,
• 9:52
  he said, looking things over, you just need more muscle power.
• 9:56
  I'll show you so popping. The cups raked and spread
• 10:00
  the seed. When they were done, every bear spot on
• 10:03
  the lawn was covered with new seeds. You go and
• 10:08
  relax now, Papa said, the cups will do the rest.
• 10:11
  But Papa shook his head. Actually, he said, I'm getting
• 10:15
  bored just watching TV. It's more fun doing things with you.
• 10:20
  What shall we do next? How about some a game
• 10:24
  of baseball, said brother, Perfect, said Papa. So the whole
• 10:28
  family played ball. Brother's, sister and Honey took turns pitching, batting,
• 10:33
  and filding. Papa was catcher and Mama was the ump.
• 10:37
  A wonderful father's day was had by all. At bedtime,
• 10:41
  the cups took turns jumping off their beds into a
• 10:44
  big cushion. It isn't fair, said brothers. Papa helped him
• 10:49
  into his pajamas. There's a Mother's Day and a Father's Day.
• 10:53
  Why isn't their cups day? Papa smiled at mother bear.
• 10:57
  I haven't the faintest idea, he said Papa. Mama tucked
• 11:01
  the cubs in and turned out the light. Did you
• 11:04
  have a good Father's Day, Papa asked sister. Yes, sweetie,
• 11:08
  said Papa, kissing her brother and honey. Good night. The
• 11:12
  best father's day ever. Our next story is called dad

  and it was published by Raycraft Books, a trade and
• 14:16
  imprint trademark of Newmark Learning. It has a copy right
• 14:21
  year of twenty twenty five and it was written by
• 14:26
  Dorothy H. Price. Today's Daddy Dollar Day. Surprise. It's Saturday,
• 14:33
  my most favorite day of the week. That's when Daddy
• 14:35
  takes me into New York City. Mommy sits my baby
• 14:40
  sister Amira on her lap and waves goodbye. Last Daddy
• 14:45
  Dollar Day. Daddy gave me a shiny silver dollar. I
• 14:47
  can't wait to spend it. We jump on the bus
• 14:50
  across the street from our house. I lift the coin
• 14:53
  over the slot for the fair. Daddy's signals, no, save
• 14:57
  that for something special, he said. Daddy's taken me into
• 15:02
  New York City before the Empire State Building, Central Park,
• 15:06
  Madison Square Garden. Where are we going today, Daddy? It's
• 15:10
  Dady daughter Day surprise, he says. The bus exit the
• 15:15
  Lincoln Tunnel. My stretch wider and wider. Buildings rise taller
• 15:20
  and taller. Crowds grow larger and larger. The bus pulls
• 15:24
  into a humongous parking space. Our feet stopped down the
• 15:28
  stairs into the Port Authority bus terminal. We follow the
• 15:32
  subway signs. Daddy says, hurry, gotta catch the next train.
• 15:37
  I shoved my hand in my pocket for my silver dollar.
• 15:39
  Daddy waves one finger left to right, save that for
• 15:43
  something special, he says, winking. The train screeches. I squeeze
• 15:49
  Daddy's hand tight and don't let go. We hop on
• 15:52
  and off for a few stops up the subway stairs,
• 15:56
  then out into the city. Are you hungry? Daddy asks
• 15:59
  imm We walk to our favorite place. Dady scoops onions
• 16:05
  and cuerkrowd on two hot dogs. I squeeze too much.
• 16:08
  Ketchup b loop. It's okay, Daddy says, wiping the red spill.
• 16:13
  We get better, get moving for your surprise. Our feet
• 16:18
  stop down the subway stairs. Hurry, the train is here,
• 16:21
  Daddy says, but we're too slow. Swosh the doors closed.
• 16:26
  It's okay, Avery, we'll catch the next one a few
• 16:30
  minutes later. Swosh the doors open. We hop on, then
• 16:35
  offer a few stops up the subway stairs. We go
• 16:38
  out into the city. Where are we? I asked? Harlem,
• 16:42
  Daddy says, Malcolm X Boulevard in one hundred and thirty
• 16:46
  fifth Street. We walk to a building across from Harlem Hospital,
• 16:50
  where Daddy was born. This is it, he says, our
• 16:53
  daddy daughter day surprise. Welcome to the Schoenberg Center for
• 16:59
  Research and Culture. Daddy is excited so I am too.
• 17:05
  This is a National Historic Landmark. Daddy says, what does
• 17:09
  that mean? I asked. It means it can't be torn down,
• 17:12
  Daddy says. He points to a painting, and that's Roussio Schomberg.
• 17:18
  This library is named after him. Daddy walks and talks
• 17:21
  while I follow. He smiles at Ida b Wells, Tony Morrison,
• 17:26
  and Marcus Garvey. We've been to a lot of places
• 17:30
  on our daughter daddy days, the New York Public Library,
• 17:34
  Times Square, even the Bronx Zoo. But today I'm learning
• 17:37
  about black people who change the world. Mathematicians like Catherine Johnson,
• 17:43
  politicians David Dinkins, songwriters James Weldon Johnson, athletes Wilma Rudolph,
• 17:51
  even a little girl like me, Ruby Bridges. I want
• 17:55
  to change the world one day like her. Daddy. Daddy
• 17:58
  winks you will. Avery. We snap pictures in the Langston
• 18:04
  Hughes Lobby. Langston was famous Harlem writer. Daddy says. We
• 18:08
  pose for each shot. The librarian shushes us. Our giggles
• 18:13
  echoed loudly. Time to head home, Daddy says. We march
• 18:20
  out to the city, our feet stomped down the subway stairs.
• 18:24
  It's noisier than before. Daddy holds my hand, I squeeze
• 18:28
  tight and don't let go. Musicians jive to jazzy tunes.
• 18:33
  Rappers battle lyric for lyric. Hip hop dancers boogie to
• 18:37
  the beat. One of them moves through the crowd, collecting money.
• 18:42
  I pull out my silver dollar. Daddy winks down. It
• 18:45
  clinks just in time. The subway door swoosh, open up
• 18:49
  the subway stairs to the Port Authority bus terminal, back
• 18:53
  through the Lincoln Tunnel to the bus stop across the
• 18:55
  street from our house. Did you too have fun today?
• 19:00
  Mommy asked? We snuggle hug on our next Daddy daughter Day.
• 19:05
  I'll be the tour guides. Our next book is titled
• 19:09
  Owen's Day with Daddy and it was published by Clavis Publishing.
• 19:14
  It has a copyright ear of twenty twenty two and
• 19:18
  it was written by Jerry Ruff. Owen's daddy was holding
• 19:22
  the baby. He made sounds for the baby with his tongue, cluck, cluck.
• 19:26
  He smiled at the baby. He said, how you doing,
• 19:29
  little man? He kissed the baby right on the head.
• 19:33
  Owen stomped his foot and yelled, I want to do
• 19:36
  something with you, Daddy. The baby started to cry. My
• 19:42
  tummy feels sick, Owen said. When everything was calm again,
• 19:45
  I'm sorry to hear that, said Daddy. Do you still
• 19:49
  want to do something like what? Said Owen? Then he
• 19:52
  had an idea, not one thing, three things, okay, said Daddy,
• 19:58
  three things. What's that's the first thing? Owen thought about
• 20:02
  it the park. At the park, the duck swam in
• 20:06
  the pond. Duck duck hungry duck. Daddy called, duck, duck
• 20:11
  hungry duck. Owen called. Daddy, took the bag of dried
• 20:17
  corn from his pocket. He poured some corn into Owen's hand.
• 20:21
  Lunchtime munchtime, Daddy called. He tossed some corn on the grass.
• 20:26
  Lunchtime munchtime, Owen called, and he tossed some corn on
• 20:31
  the grass too. A mama duck and six baby ducks
• 20:34
  waddled over. They gobbled up the corn. You feed the babies,
• 20:39
  Daddy said. He poured more corn into Owen's hand. I'll
• 20:44
  feed the mama. Owen. Sprinkle corn by his feet. The
• 20:48
  babies came right up and ate it. He put a
• 20:50
  piece of corn on the toe of his shoe. One
• 20:53
  of the babies snatched it. He put a piece of
• 20:55
  corn in the middle of his hand and held it
• 20:57
  out a baby duck. Ate it it ate the corn
• 21:02
  on my hand, Owen shouted it. Likes you, said Daddy.
• 21:06
  When the corn was gone, Daddy crunched up the bag.
• 21:09
  What's next, he asked Owen. Owen thought about it. The playground.
• 21:15
  The playground had two slides, a big slide and a
• 21:18
  little slide. Which slide today, Daddy asked. Owen thought about it.
• 21:24
  The ladder on the big slide went up and up.
• 21:27
  One time, Owen had started climbing, but it was too high.
• 21:30
  He began to cry, and as Daddy carried him down.
• 21:34
  That one, said Owen, pointing to the little slide. Then
• 21:37
  he thought some more. No, that one, he said, pointing
• 21:40
  to the big slide. This time, Owen stood by the ladder.
• 21:44
  He looked up. His head felt funny, his tommy felt funny.
• 21:48
  He touched the ladder. It was code. I'll be right
• 21:51
  behind you, Daddy said. Together, Owen and his daddy climbed
• 21:56
  the ladder. At the top, Daddy said, you can sit
• 21:59
  on my lap. When they were ready, Daddy said, let's
• 22:02
  count one, two, three down they went. Owen screamed his
• 22:08
  Daddy screamed. When their feet touched the ground, Owen shouted again, weee.
• 22:15
  After three more times, Daddy said, it's almost lunchtime. What's
• 22:18
  next to Owen? Owen thought about it. Sheeese burgers. At
• 22:23
  the drive through, Daddy asked, you want to give the order? Owen?
• 22:27
  Three Chiefs Burgers and three French fries, Owen said, out
