This is a big day for Billy the Goat. Billy's dad is an electrician; he's working on a new house and Billy is going to help! For all kids who love to tag along with their fathers, this book is a fun read.  The language, while not dumbed down, is basic enough for most youngsters to understand, Dustin Ross doesn't talk down to children. Billy is well-spoken and has a very well-rounded vocabulary. He is also  a very charming little goat. Of course Billy makes a few mistakes, gets into a little mischief and learns a few good lessons from Dad...and not just about electricity.Billy The Goat Helps His Father is a nice addition to any child's library. I enjoyed reading it myself and am looking forward to more of Billy's adventures. Five stars for a book that's amusing, a little different, and does not patronize children.(I just wonder how Mr. Ross resisted the urge to title his book "Billy The Kid?"
