5 stars! “A must for deployments! I purchased this book for my 4-year-old daughter who is having a hard time dealing with my husband being away. I also purchased two other books at the same time, but this one has become a favorite in our house and is read every day. In the book, Lily deals with several emotions (stubborn, angry, sad) caused by her daddy’s deployment, but realizes those emotions are okay to feel and that mommy even feels them, too! I would definitely recommend this book, it’s been a HUGE help.”

5 stars! “I have been a part of the Marine community for over a decade and a Mom for the past seven years, and very rarely is there a book that is helpful in regards to deployments. I love how this book is short, concise, and creative. The author has wonderful ideas that I will incorporate into future deployments, as well as sound advice. I highly recommend this book for military families or those that must say good bye often for extended periods. From one Mother to another, I thank you.”
