While You Are Away

While you are on that big ship, Daddy, far, far away I tell you things. I pretend the wind can carry my words clear across the ocean right to your heart. At times a loved one may be far, far away, but that special person is never far from mind and heart. Eileen Spinelli's lyrical, patriotic text and Rene Graef's uplifting illustrations depicting military families combine to create a reassuring book about separation and reunion.Spinelli, Eileen is the author of 'While You Are Away', published 2008 under ISBN 9781423113515 and ISBN 1423113519.
