5 out of 5 stars A must for all Military Families   December 6, 2006
Richard Funderburk
This wonderfully illustrated book was welcomed into my home right before Thanksgiving. Amongst our family and friends at the Thanksgiving table was a young family, whose father had just returned from the war and met his daughter for the first time. The encouraging words and bright illustrations helped the couple begin the conversation about their fears and uncertainty on how to raise a small child with a father away. I would recommend this uplifting text to any family!

R. T. Gonzales (Virginia, USA)
This is a fabulous book that will really help military families. We need this in every library! Wonderful story and beautiful illustrations. Exceptional book.


5 out of 5 stars Needed in every elementary school library   November 19, 2006
Judith Burks (Ocean Park, WA)
As a school counselor....and as a former Military Brat....I cannot overstate the importance of this book for the children of any military personnel. I hope Ms. Lorenzana follows this up with books specific to other branches of the military and I hope a copy of this book is soon to be found in every elementary school library.


5 out of 5 stars Coming Home Series: Navy Dad   November 18, 2006
Linda Neumann
This book is excellent for children who have parents in the military. It helps them to understand military life and what to expect when a parent may be away serving his/her country. The illustrations are fabulous and there's one on every page in beautiful color. I think any child would be delighted to own this book.



5 out of 5 stars Smart and helpful   November 17, 2006
Marilyn J. Michel
This is perfect timing for this book, with all of the soldiers in Iraq, and all of those families waiting. This is a topic that hasn't has a light shown on it before - how military service affects the families, specifically the children. I hope this is the first in a long series.
