| Why a Daughter Needs a Dad: A Hundred Reasons by Cumberland House Publishing On time and accurate |
| My order arrived on time and the book was in pristine condition. This collection of books are great, meaningful gifts. |
| Why a Daughter Needs a Dad: A Hundred Reasons by Cumberland House Publishing This is a beautiful book |
I bought this book for my husband in anticipation of our adopted daughter from China. For starters, I was thrilled that the photographs showed multicultural, multigenerational fathers and daughters including a photograph of a white father with an Asian daughter.
The sentiments inside are beautiful. If you're looking for a self-help book, this isn't it. If you're looking for short, single sentences of wisdom and encouragement accompanied by moving and beautiful photographs, this is your book.
I found this book in Target and must admit I was a little embarrassed by the tears streaming down my face when I read it. It reminded me of my own father, a true inspiration, and how my husband will be as a father once we bring our daughter home. This is a wonderful Father's Day, birthday, or Christmas present for any father from any daughter. |
| Why a Daughter Needs a Dad: A Hundred Reasons by Cumberland House Publishing Melts your heart |
| Like the author, I'm a divorced dad of daughters so his foreward struck close to home. As if the words and pictures in this book weren't sappy enough on their own, my daughters recently gave me a copy to which they'd added a sentence or a paragraph next to a dozen or so of the author's lines which resonated with them. I nearly cry every time I read it. |
| Why a Daughter Needs a Dad: A Hundred Reasons by Cumberland House Publishing Beautiful book |
| I purchased two copies of this book, one for my father and one for my husband. As I flipped through the pages I felt I could relate to every passage that was written. They are personal, yet universal........simple but descriptive. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to touch the heart of a dad with a little girl (or a grown little girl). |
| Why a Daughter Needs a Dad: A Hundred Reasons by Cumberland House Publishing Daughters and Dads |
| My daughters bought this book for my husband for Father's Day; he was so moved by each sentiment that when his friend's wife gave birth to their first child a few days later (a girl!), my husband asked me to get this book to give to the new parents. He felt that it was the most profound gift for the occasion, not just for now but for future years, to be read and re-read at all stages of their daughter's life. If these pages don't touch your heart as you read each one.....you need to visit a cardiologist to make sure you still have a beating, functional heart! And I recommend the companion book to be purchased with this one - a perfect set; "Why a Daughter Needs a Mom" |
| Why a Daughter Needs a Dad: A Hundred Reasons by Cumberland House Publishing Book Description |
| The relationship between father and daughter is one that almost defies description. Begun and nurtured in love, the relationship strengthens daughter and dad and brings out the best in both, softening the edges of fathers and providing strength and security for their daughters. The warmth of quiet—and exhuberant—hugs and laughter, the comfort of familiarity, the creation of a history from which both dad and daughter may draw—all this and much more express the rich relationship that exists between fathers and daughters. Why a Daughter Needs a Dad is one father’s loving reflection upon what he brings—or hopes to bring—to his daughter’s life. “When I sat down to write,” Gregory E. Lang observes, “I wanted to express the essence of what I think is unique about the relationship my daughter and I share.” He began to think of the things they had done together and how important their moments together have been. He thought of what sort of wisdom he could impart by virtue of a strong relationship, how their years together could provide a bond that would guide her as she grew into womanhood. “The first time I read what I had written,” he writes, “I saw a list of what a daughter might ask her father to do for her. The second time I read it I saw a list of all that I hope to do for my daugher.” The result is a book that will inspire fathers to embrace the important role they hold in their daughters’ lives, to provide them with the love, nurture, and support they seek, and to enjoy the blessings that are reciprocated in kind.
