On day one, he's thrown in with a man known as the Santa Fe Slayer, Ambrose Hughes.Hughes is quiet, disfigured, and weirdly urbane. Elias was so young when Hughes committed his crimes that he has only the faintest idea what Hughes is in for. However, Hughes makes clear that Elias is his ideal victim type...and there's no one to protect Elias from the much larger man with his prison-jacked body and that hard gleam in his dark eyes.Whoever paired them has it in for Elias; that much is obvious.Elias is terrified of Hughes, but he soon realizes the other prisoners are worse. If Elias is going to survive, he'll have to choose the lesser of the evils: To preserve himself, he'll need Hughes for his Daddy. And given Hughes's skewed morality, they'll have to fake it till they make it.CW: typical prison warnings. Violence between inmates and guards but not between main characters.

Avi Steinberg is stumped. After defecting from yeshiva to attend Harvard, he has nothing but a senior thesis on Bugs Bunny to show for himself. While his friends and classmates advance in the world, Steinberg remains stuck at a crossroads, his “romantic” existence as a freelance obituary writer no longer cutting it. Seeking direction (and dental insurance) Steinberg takes a job running the library counter at a Boston prison. He is quickly drawn into the community of outcasts that forms among his bookshelves—an assortment of quirky regulars, including con men, pimps, minor prophets, even ghosts—all searching for the perfect book and a connection to the outside world. Steinberg recounts their daily dramas with heartbreak and humor in this one-of-a-kind memoir—a piercing exploration of prison culture and an entertaining tale of one young man’s earnest attempt to find his place in the world.

My Daddy Went to Jail and I Am Sad is about unfortunate real-life instances that are hard to talk about with our children. Sometimes, we as parents are embarrassed to talk to our family and friends and especially our children when a parent makes a mistake in life and ends up in the judicial system. We need to be open with our children about these things and talk about things that are hard. This book is one of those ways to help in talking to our children. Proverbs 28:13 says, "He who covers his sins will not prosper. But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy."
