The joy of a young girl who is looking forward to "Spending The Day With Her Dad." This is the "Prelude" to the story, but certainly not it's only concept. The importance of a strong father figure in this young girl's life only scratches the surface of the story. The journey begins to unfold in a small suburban neighborhood and as the reader follows the story it takes them into the intrigue and fast pace of the inner city then back again. It swirls you into the "innocence's" in a young girl's life, then hurls you directly to the issues that "effect" us all. The Story is told through the eyes of a young girl, "Lois" and her father, "Chas." Lois relishes the experience that she receives from the love and support of her father. The biggest irony in the story is when he realizes, that he too is benefiting, just by spending quality time with his daughter. There are many different times in the book that the young, but very perceptive girl feels alienated. It is a constant struggle for her and very difficult at times. Throughout the story Lois finds that she can stand by her principles and beliefs and still find the courage to enlighten people along the way.
