Perfect for daddies in the military
10 Jan 2003
By Sarah Green
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
My husband is in the military and I found this book when we found out he was going to Kuwait for six months. The message is beautiful and my husband and I cried together while reading it. Since my daughter is only 9 mos. old we wanted a way for her to think of her Dad every day. Each night we look at his photo and read this book. It's a special way for me to let her know that her daddy loves her and that he's coming home soon. This book is perfect for any family in a similar situation.

Absolutely Wonderful!!
29 Sep 2004
By M. J. Sutton
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
My husband is in the military and I bought this book for my 4 and 2 year old before he deployed. This book was an extreme comfort to my 4 yr. old. I read it to her when she had a hard time dealing with my husbands deployment. It became a nightly ritual while he was gone. If your spouse is in the military, this is a must. It really hits home with the feelings and it also talked about daddies feelings too. We used the idea of saving things to show daddy and my daughter loved it.

Extremely warm and sensitive
3 Feb 1999
By A Customer
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Incredibly sensitive and warm story of a father and his son as they deal with separation. I really liked the way the main character, the little boy, expressed his feelings about the separation from his father. It is a good book to read to your children if you travel. Also, it gives parents a good opportunity to discuss ways to deal with separation, again with your children. In addition to the superb writing, the illustrations in the book are tremendous.
