My First Best Friend brings to life the immediate and unshakable bond between parent and child, from the point of view of the father. This sweet book depicts an energetic, fiercely independent, and unapologetically curious little boy and the strong pride the father has in his son. The story explores and celebrates the father/child relationship, describing his almost childlike enthusiasm for the journey of parenthood, and his internal tension surrounding a desire to watch his boy grow up and a need to hold on to a childhood that already seems fleeting.

Meet 7 year old Ahmad. A boy who idealizes his father and loves chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream. It''s a special day for him because after school, Ahmad is going for his favorite ice cream with his favorite person. What seems like a normal day changes quickly into one that transforms the way Ahmad views his father, ice cream, and life all in one moment.
