by Randy Ribay (Author), Zeke Peña (Illustrator)

A funny, heartwarming picture book about a father and his child's boundless curiosity that reminds us what's important to hold onto in life.

It's time to leave the house, but...where are the keys As Daddy rummages through the mess, he hands a water bottle to his toddler and says, "Hold, please." This accidental request turns into an adventure when the child decides holding is fun and wants to hold EVERYTHING!

Before long, the toddler has their arms full with their favorite stuffie, toy plane, even the family pet, and has set their sights on more ambitious items--the rain, a tree, and more--until it becomes too much to hold. Luckily, Daddy's always there to hold them.
