A cozy read-aloud for brand-new dads, this crinkle-filled board book wraps humor, love, and tactile fun into one irresistible gift. With cuddly, soft burrito swaddling on the cover and a dedication space on the back, it’s made to be shared, squeezed, and remembered.

What could be cuter than babies wrapped like burritos? Daddy’s Little Burrito celebrates that snuggly, silly stage with playful rhyme, vibrant art, and a soft crinkle burrito for little fingers to scrunch. Part love letter, part laugh, it’s built for drooly storytimes, daddy-baby bonding, and endless rounds of “one more time!”

With a space for personalization on the back, it’s the perfect pick for baby showers, birthdays, or a first Father’s Day gift. Designed for ages 0–3 and sturdy enough for hugs, tugs, and giggles, it’s a joyful first book that dads and babies will gobble up together.
Jody Jensen Shaffer is an award-winning poet and the author of more than 70 books of fiction and nonfiction for children, including Prudence the Part-Time Cow, A Chip off the Old Block, It’s Your First Day Of School, Busy Bus!, Emergency Kittens, the Bear and Friends Puzzle Reader series, and more. When she’s not writing, Jody can be found spending time with family and walking her rescue dog, Sophie. Visit Jody at jodyjensenshaffer.com and on X @jodywrites4kids.

Beatrice was born and raised in Bologna, Italy, where she still lives and works as a freelance illustrator, author, and visual artist. She lives with a sassy, chubby black cat named Lapo, who often appears in her works, sometimes as the star, sometimes as a photobomber.
