The 20-year-old author (no that’s not a typo) of A Letter To My Father: What Your Son Wants To Tell You But Doesn’t wrote this book in order to communicate to fathers what sons of all ages want their fathers to know even when they don’t make it known. This would be a great resource for any father to keep on his nightstand to read and reread, even if only a few pages at a time. This book written by Canadian, Isaac Mogilevsky, could help dads everywhere maintain focus and intentionality for a lifetime of being a father.
