Overview

A Story That Helps Military Kids Feel Brave, Seen, and Supported Operation Kid Deployment Day is a heartfelt book created especially for military families navigating one of the hardest moments of service life, deployment day. Through the eyes of a young child, readers walk step-by-step through the emotions, questions, and quiet bravery that come when a parent puts on the uniform and prepares to leave.
