5.0 out of 5 stars perfect for military toddlers!, April 20, 2004
By A Customer
A perfect book for children with parents in the military. My son calls it his "daddy book" and even though he's only 3 he has memorized the whole thing (it rhymes so it's easy to remember) and he "read" it to his father when he came back from Iraq. I would recommend this book to anybody with toddlers who has a parent who is deployed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for young kids of a deployed parent, May 8, 2006
I ordered this book for my two year old son when his dad deployed to Iraq. It is very simple and easy for him to understand. The book is narated by a little boy who is very proud of his dad's job even though it sometimes makes his dad travel far away. It briefly explores the feelings a child may feel in this situation. My son loves this book! Although it makes me cry, I love this book too. However, the book is very flimsy. I wish it had been constructed better, especially since my son carries it around all of the time. I am online to buy another one to have as a back up. At $9.00, I would expect better quality.

5.0 out of 5 stars The very best deployment book!!!, January 18, 2007
This was the very best of all the books we bought about Daddy's deployment. It's written from a little boy's pespective and it hits the mark perfectly. He loved this book!!!!!! I can't recommend it enough! Your kids won't be disappointed with this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally a deployment book for TODDLERS!
The Army had little to no advise for helping parents with children under the age of 5 with the fears of deployment. This book is terrific for that age group. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Good book, wish it was sturdier
This is a good book for small children of military parents. It has a nice story that covers all the child's concerns, and colorful, simple, graphics. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars happy with my purchase
This book is adorable, my kids loved it. I agree with the other review that it is small, but it's an easy size for toddlers to hold. Very cute.
