The kids *love* to play with Steve. The house is never as loud or as joyful as when Daddio is "on the job" -- that's when the Big Bear gives rides, when the Squeaky Mouse sneaks into armpits for a nibble, and when the Hungry Eagle gives chase around the dining room table. The bathtub quickly becomes a stormy sea, and truncated Solo cups the unfortunate mariners. Whatever adventure is brewing, the kids are ready -- energetic participants in the world Steve creates. You would think, the way they squeal, that Steve really did just transform into a Big Blue Whale (who is the biggest animal in the ocean and therefore the strongest and fastest in any kind of chase or competition). These are the every-day memories I hope the children will keep and cherish always -- I know I will.
