  • E4: Dads on Books- Big Words for Little People
    Jun 9 2025

    Long ago,

    In a galaxy far, far away...

    Dad's on Books- EPISODE 4

    David And Mike take on the book, Big Words for Little People, by Jamie Lee Curtis and Laura Cornell. Listen as David tells us why he didn't like the book, and then changes his mind as he continues reading it. Mike was confused, so he hadn't reread it, but he remembers a lot of it, because he read it so many times. Thanks to Mike's brother Byl, for giving this stupendous and superb book to us originally. We didn't mean for it to run this long, there were just so many Big Words to talk about!

    Happy Listening!
