Daddyhood: This Changes Everything
Daniel W. Driscoll
Any man can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a daddy. Daddyhood celebrates the joy of raising children. Daniel Driscoll encourages dads to pass on their Catholic values and share in their children's sense of discovery. Being a daddy is about the future, looking at the possibility that children can and will change the world. At a time when the importance of having a mother and a father is being downplayed, this book is an excellent reminder of why we all need fathers.

John Dutto
