Daughters Are Special: A Tribute to Our Cherished Children

Daughters hold a special place in our families. There is hardly a parent who doesn’t marvel at the growth of a daughter from adorable infant to precious little girl to elegant woman. And a daughter has as much to teach her parents about the world as they have to teach her.
Daughters can also be also older sisters who teach their siblings everything they know, or adoring younger sisters whose love and admiration is unconditional. Daughters are nieces and grandchildren who eventually become mothers, aunts, and grandmothers themselves.Daughters Are Special celebrates the unique bond between daughters and parents and the love they share, filled with wonder, laughter, and joy. With touching, tender, and humorous quotes, this book is a perfect gift for any daughter or parent of a daughter.
