At a time when parents all over the country are deploying and having to be apart from their families, this timely and beautiful story is about a little girl who loves her daddy. He is a soldier and sometimes must be away from home. The little girl shares her memories of the good times as well as the sadness she feels when he is gone. Wonderful illustrations accompany the beautifully written story in rhyme. This is the perfect gift for any family with a parent overseas or who must be gone for longer lengths of time.
