An Honest Day's Ode is the second book in a trilogy that Nathan promised his daughter Sierra. In these times of cultural upheaval and political darkness, he wanted to give her these songs of "looking up," despite the evidence. Filled with smiles, but also the honesty of wistful reflection, An Honest Day's Ode gives us a genuinely thought-provoking "out" to the everyday drudgery and craziness of the 21st Century's teen years.
