Everyone,
Our library had an author visit who wrote the book, An Ocean Between Us.
Rhonda H. Bishop works at the Wright Patterson Air Force as a preschool
teacher and has written a book about a child whose mother is deployed.
Attached is the information.

> 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,
