When Daddy Comes Home From The Army

When Daddy Comes Home from the Army is an inspiring story told by a 6-year-old girl who is trying to cope with the extended deployment of her father. With honesty and emotion, she discusses why her father had to leave, and what her mother does to help her and her brother deal with the separation. Strategies for parents concerned with how to maintain their child's equilibrium in the absence of a parent are subtly incorporated into the story. The story ends in an upbeat and positive way as the girl fondly remembers the special times she has shared with her father, and looks forward to enjoying these activities again once he returns.
