Overview[]

Why Do Dads Have Chest Hair? (Pourquoi les papas ont-ils des poils sur la poitrine ? in French) is a rhyme-in-joke in the I Grow Up with the Mr. Men and Little Miss series.

Summary[]

Little Miss Trouble answers the titular question, saying: "Not all dads have chest hair! Too bad! Because it's really funny to pull the hairs! Moms, for one, don't. It's a difference between women and men: men have more hair on their bodies. And on their faces too. Have you ever seen moms with a mustache or a beard? Too bad! We could pull them!" while sympathizing with the reader.
