"Meet a few of the heroes of our armed forces in this beautifully illustrated picture book, written in rhyming verse"--

This story was written to help empower military children and explain the valuable role they play while their mommy is away on military deployment, temporary duty, or stationed elsewhere. My hope is that this educational book can bring a smile to your child's face, and help to connect and shorten the distance while you or your loved one is away.

Whether it's at a hospital, a clinic, at the park, or home, Doctor Mommy always takes care of everyone, everywhere! Through adorable illustrations and a whimsical cast of characters, this picture book inspires children with the realization that they too can be superheroes. Written by a physician, these depictions of life in healthcare are brimming with fun references, giving adults a chance to share their love of medicine with their kids. The real heroes in our lives are often the unspoken ones. This book is dedicated to our real-life superheroes, Doctor Mommies who both save lives and create lives.

This touching collection of stories written by people of all ages and backgrounds will honor the most important woman in everyoneÆs lifeùtheir mother. Sons and daughters can show Mom how heroic she is and how grateful they are for her daily acts of kindness, gentle guidance, solid wisdom, and willingness to always put family first. From a mother who helped her teenage daughter beat depression to one who hand-built a desk from scraps for her aspiring-writer son, this collection provides plenty of stories to uniquely express oneÆs gratitude and admiration for their mother, or mother figure, who played a starring role in their life. Children will be able to give her a gift that touches her heart and that sheÆll be proud to display. Finally, MomÆs everyday heroic deeds will not go unnoticed.

A child demonstrates that while Mom differs from a traditional superhero, as an American soldier, she is a hero of a different kind.
