This photobook tells the humorous and emotional story of the showdown between Shannon and her Dad going shopping for a new car on Christmas eve. Dad manages to find the ugliest cars and vigorously advocates their qualities as an economical and functional choice. Shannon and her sister, Jordan, continue to focus on unpractical sporty vehicles, ultimately rejecting everything Dad has to offer and fixating on either a BMW or Mercedes as a safe and practical car. This book is a documentary, the photos are not staged, and the images convey a powerful message about the relationship between fathers and daughters.



If you have a teenager, you'll be able to relate to the story in this book. It will make you laugh and cry. It might even give you the strength to cope and the courage to get off your wallet and buy that new car for your teenager.
