At thirty-three years of age, Allie Wilson is only three weeks away from marrying the handsome and respected Trey Thompson. She's successful, excited, and happy . . . until she comes across an old photograph of her long-lost father. Suddenly everything changes for Allie. . . her heart, her focus, and maybe even her future. Before her reluctant fiancé and hesitant mom can stop her, Allie launches a cross-country search for a father she can't remember. And on the way she meets a few people she can't get out of her mind--including the handsome and charming Chase Mason. Is it her curiosity, her conscience, her father's wish that spurs her on? Or could it be the will of God? All Allie knows is that she has a lot of questions--and there's only one man who can give her the answers.

A child esteems and looks up to the father. This authority figure holds muc importance in the development of a youth. Children on the other hand are considered and pitied by their fathers. This dichotomy is similar in dealings of a child of God with the Heavenly Father. We love and esteem Him and He loves and pitys us. He is always trying to help us to take the best roads for our life. He always looks to find ways to help and bless. Through Daddy's Eyes looks at a father and the Father through the prism of youth and mortality, respectively. It herald these unique and personal relationships showing their precious weight in gold and beyond. It is the author's hope that every man will see how important he is in the life of some child - how he is looked to for guidance, assurance, advice and hope. When a child can see himself Through Daddy's Eyes and emerge with a smile of self-assurance, that man has accomplished much in his lifetime.

Traditionally a mother's role in life, a father decides to put his career on hold to stay home full time to raise his two small children. How will he cope, manage, and most of all survive?

"Written through the eyes of a child, this book shows the special bond between a father and a daughter." --from back

Part personal history, part biography, Dotter of Her Father's Eyes contrasts two comingofage narratives: that of Lucia, the daughter of James Joyce, and that of author Mary Talbot, daughter of the eminent Joycean scholar James S. Atherton. Social expectations and gender politics, thwarted ambitions and personal tragedy are played out against two contrasting historical backgrounds, poignantly evoked by the atmospheric visual storytelling of awardwinning graphicnovel pioneer Bryan Talbot. Produced through an intense collaboration seldom seen between writers and artists, Dotter of Her Father's Eyes is smart, funny, and sadan essential addition to the evolving genre of graphic memoir. * Bryan Talbot is recognized worldwide as one of the true original voices in graphic fiction. * Bryan Talbot's Grandville Mon Amour was nominated for a 2011 Hugo Award.
