Dear Dad,
This journal is a gift with a twist - its from you to me.
When we are children we are always asking questions... Well now I have some more for you. Please could you answer them in the only way you know how and then give the book back to me.
There is space at the end if you wish to add stories that weren't questions.
They say we all have at least one book in us and this can be one of yours. The story of you I will treasure forever.
Thank you
