Overview
Award-winning journalist Ed Gordon continues the efforts of his Daddy’s Promise foundation with this beautiful celebration of the father-daughter bond.
In this gentle and affirming keepsake, a father makes a pledge to his daughter: to always
love her,
support her,
uplift her,
and protect her,
no matter what.
