The Journey Begins…
The path to the Father is the path to who we are.
James has always felt the absence of the father he never knew—a quiet ache that follows him like a shadow. His days are filled with questions without answers, longings without direction, and a sense that he was made for something more.
Then Daisy appears.
Radiant. Mysterious. Sent with purpose.
She invites James on a journey beyond the world he has always known—through valleys of uncertainty, across mountains of wonder, and into realms where the invisible becomes beautifully real. Along the way, James encounters friendship, loss, courage, and trials that awaken something hidden deep within him:
Identity.
Calling.
Purpose.
This is more than a journey to find a father.
It is the beginning of discovering who he truly is—
and the love that has been pursuing him all along.
If your heart has ever longed for meaning, belonging, or the love of a Father—this story will speak to you.

My Review
I was amazed by this book. Being an allegorical novel, I knew it would be special. It did not disappoint.
The biblical truths, descriptions, and characters kept me glued to the pages. I loved the heartfelt love, courage, and faith that came through every page. In every book I read, I have a special character that I emotionally connect with. This time it is Daisy. Her circumstances and how she ended up in Heaven touched my heart. Even though it is suitable for children, as an adult, my childlike wonder from my own love of fantasy, loved it.
The story is heartwarming, sad in parts, but is filled with trust, truth, and hope. I can't wait to read the next book in the series. Highly recommended.

My Review
In this book James goes through new adventures with Daisy and learns many lessons and biblical principles. He learns about grace and mercy and tries to understand why people would choose despair.
The book is filled with biblical stories retold by Daisy, as he follows her through different areas of land. The story touched my heart, as God's message came throughout the pages. It's well-written, descriptive, but filled with choices of love and redemption. I definitely will read the third book when it's published.
