Tell Me Why: A Father Answers His Daughter’s Questions about God, by Michael and Jana Novak (Pocket Books, 321 pp., $24)

IMAGINE, fathers. Imagine an extremely bright, articulate, independent daughter in her mid twenties who still thinks enough of her old man to come to him with her most heartfelt questions about life, death, good, evil—and the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Imagine that she patiently listens, learns, and looks to her dad even as she remains frankly and smartly skeptical about his best answers.
