Review
Wisdom from a Father is a series of charming short essays from the author’s personal blog, which capture his thoughts and musings on things ranging from mundane daily moments to life-altering experiences. Containing religious undertones and a non-traditional format, this short book may not be for all readers. For those who would enjoy the novelty of this structure and don’t mind some spiritual leaning, however, this book is enjoyable. Central themes on finding meaning and pausing to appreciate the small gifts in life are ones that resonate widely and will surely appeal to a global audience.
