About the Book

It's All About Daddy addresses the themes of love, appreciation and death quite vividly. The book is comprised of a wide array of messages, of course for fathers, but many are very pertinent to parents on a whole. Jody Esi Otu maturely and completely speaks to every important moment within which any child would like to express his or her feelings to their father. She looks at birthdays, Christmas, death and dying, Valentine's Day, father's day, she also address the stereotype of black fathers not being there for their children, and every day moments when a grateful child just wants to say I love you and or thank you for being there.


About the Author

 Jody Esi Otu was born in Montego Bay, Jamaica in 1997. Amazingly, this means she was only twelve years old at the completion of this her first book. At this point she had not yet graduated prep school, where she was in the sixth grade.

Jody Esi Otu has always liked writing since she was much younger. Her first writings took the form of heartfelt notes, letters and homemade cards to family and friends. The book of poetry It's All About Daddy was inspired by the death of her grandfather. She identified with the mournful state of her father and sought to lift his spirit through poetry.
