Narrated by author Greg Pope, this iconographic-animated adaptation of the 2014 picture book featuring illustrations by Lea Wells is subtitled “A Story for Dads and Daughters.” I'm a Big Girl follows a little girl from babyhood as she grows into a real talker with a love of life. Although customarily whisked off to bed by her father, one night the girl “filled Daddy's heart with fear” by announcing that she was a big girl who could head up to bed by herself. Worried about being left behind, the father instantly begins to imagine her teenage years—and even her wedding—as the child mounts the stairs, but is soon brought back to earth when she reminds him that she still needs help being tucked in. Backed by a sweet piano soundtrack and also featuring two bonus songs by Nashville singer/songwriter Pope (giving this a bit of a vanity project feel), this simple tale is a strong optional purchase.
