In this anthology, 35 parents compose touching letters to their kids, telling them to fight for true love, explore creative options, embrace their faith, and face whatever challenges life throws at them. Letters to My Children shows that these celebrities, athletes, writers, tastemakers, artists, businessmen, social issue advocates, and public servants are simply parents at heart.
