Description:
The "Hero in My Pocket" is a special resource for children whose lives have been affected by the death of a U.S. Military Service Member. In the book, with the death of their father-their-own- "Special Hero" - Greg, age 10 and Grace, age 7, find that children in military families often face additional issues compared to their non-military family peer group. As a key part of the process of mourning, Greg and Grace honor and remember their "Special Hero" and invite the reader to do the same thing using "Special Pages" for drawing and writing. The unique format includes open-ended questions to encourage communication and understanding among children and caregivers. Along with military themes, concepts on grief and recovery are age appropriate, meaningful, and relevant to the relationship a child values with their own special hero. |
