Llama Llama's best friend, Nelly Gnu, gets her own book with the publication of Nelly Gnu and Daddy Too. Knowing that her classic character Llama Llama has a single mom, acclaimed author/illustrator Dewdney made Nelly Gnu the star of the show when she wanted to write a story celebrating the love between father and child. With more than 1,000,000 copies sold in the Llama Llama series, Nelly is in good company. Nelly Gnu and her daddy are spending a day just the two of them, and they’ve decided to build a play house! When Nelly worries that her new house needs flowers, her and Daddy set off on an adventure to the hardware store. The store is busy and distracting, and soon Nelly realizes that not only has she lost her doll, but she’s lost Daddy too! It's a scary moment for a little gnu, until Daddy swoops in with his strong arms and reassures her that he was there all along.
