When US President Barack Obama was a young boy, the absence of his father created a deep and lasting longing in his life. Once stating in a Father’s Day address to the nation that, “I still wish that I had a dad who was not only around, but involved, another role model.” His father died in an accident, 11 years after he last saw the young Barack.

Latherow’s new book, Letters from Dad joyfully illustrates that the bond of love between a father and child cannot be broke by time or distance alone. Letters from Dad is for fathers and all those work long or demanding hours, travel, or live apart from their children and want them to know that love is what forever bonds them.
