The Power of Honest Conversations
At the core of ‘101 Questions from My Daughters' lies the most powerful tool any parent can wield: honest communication. The book is built around real questions asked by John Glaser's daughters and his thoughtful, raw, and sometimes emotional answers. These questions touch on love, self-worth, resilience, grief, dreams, and purpose.

A Unique Fatherhood Memoir That Speaks from the Heart
Many fatherhood books focus on strategies and tips. While helpful, they can often miss the emotional richness that makes the parenting journey truly meaningful. What sets John Glaser's memoir apart is its emotional depth and authentic storytelling.
This isn't a book about perfect parenting; it's a story about showing up for your children even when life feels uncertain. Glaser's willingness to be vulnerable shows that strength as a father comes from the heart, not from having all the answers.
Real Questions, Real Growth
Some of the questions in the book include:
"How do I know I'm enough?"
"What happens when people stop loving each other?"
"What should I do if I'm scared to fail?"
These aren't just casual curiosities—they're the kinds of questions that shape young minds and test a parent's emotional wisdom. Through his responses, Glaser doesn't just answer; he encourages fathers to reflect on their own lives, past mistakes, and core beliefs.
The result? A beautifully human fatherhood memoir that promotes self-discovery alongside parenting advice.
