> Good afternoon, everyone!
> 
> In Storytime this morning, I met a mother and her three-year-old son.
> Dad is serving in the Marine Corps in Iraq, and Mom was interested in
> picture books she could read to her son to help explain their
> situation.
> 
> I have pulled _The Impossible Patriotism Project_ (Skeers) but it is a
> little older.  I have also checked the Helping Books website, but my
> keywords (military, army, marines, and Iraq) haven't turned up
> anything at a three-year old's level.
> 
> Suggestions would be much appreciated.  This is a new family to our
> Storytime and I would like to help them as soon as I can.
> 
> Thanks in advance,
