Military life can be challenging for families-especially for children facing the separation of deployment. My Dad is Going Away, But He Will Be Back One Day! is a gentle, reassuring story that helps kids understand why a parent must leave and reminds them that love keeps families connected, no matter the distance.
Told from a child's perspective, this touching story follows the journey of a little one whose father is deployed. Through hugs, letters, e-mails, drawings, and phone calls, the child learns that even though Dad is far away, his love and pride remain close to home. With Mom's support and comforting words, the child discovers ways to stay connected, stay strong, and look forward to the joyful day when Dad returns. This fifth edition includes:- A beautifully updated story with new rhymes and phrasing for smoother read-aloud moments.
- Vibrant new illustrations and art pages that bring warmth, color, and heart to each scene.
