About this audiobook
A single question can change a family. A single spark can change a life.
When nine‑year‑old Jules asks, “Dad… why do I have to be good?” she isn’t seeking rules—she’s reaching for meaning. Her father sets out to find the answer, leading his three children on a heartfelt quest from their Gulf Coast home to libraries, archives, museums, and the ancient halls of Westminster Abbey. Along the way, wonder, humor, chaos, and a mysterious living flame awaken for those who seek truth with sincerity.
This audiobook blends warm family adventure with ancient mystery, revealing stories of courage, kindness, and the light we carry inside. Meet unforgettable characters—Krista with her robe‑wearing flamingo, Andrew with his “Important Science” notebook, and Jules with her quiet, world‑shaping sincerity.
Told with humor, heart, and father‑voiced tenderness, Why Do I Have to Be Good? invites listeners of all ages into a journey of wonder, identity, and goodness
