Letters to Our Daughters: Mother's Words of Love

Every mother will find something to recognize in this inspiring collection of letters from around the world and all walks of life. Written by mothers for their daughters, these courageous and incredibly touching personal accounts tell stories of adoption, immigration, single parenting, recovery, and overcoming economic hardship to reveal the heart wrenching and often humorous realities of parenting. Accompanied by beautiful family photographs, each of these forty letters possesses a unique interpretation of a universal truth, that the bond between mother and daughter is as intense and mysterious as any of lifes experiences. Filled with wisdom and encouragement, this celebration of love and life invites mothers, or anyone, to communicate the heartfelt emotions that too often go unshared. This book gives voices to ordinary mothers from all kinds of backgrounds who instill their wisdom and love into letters. I recommend this book to all who seek stories of hope. ~ Mary Pipher, Ph.D., bestselling author of Reviving Ophelia
