"My Daddy's going away, you know,
He says it's for a while.
We'll miss our hugs and storytime,
We'll miss his funny smile."

But love is a very powerful thing, and there are all kinds of ways to try to feel better. As they count down the days on a calendar, the special day when Daddy is coming home gets nearer and nearer...

This comforting and inspiring story, drawn from the author's own experiences of being away from home, helps children understand and find ways to cope when their daddy goes away.
