I love when I get books like these. I won a giveaway over at Julie's blog, Soldier's Life, Crazy Life.
The book especially hit home because my husband will be deploying soon.
Coming Home by Greg Ruth is an incredibly fast read but it says so much. The flap of the book describes it better than I ever could:
Natalie enjoyed flipping through the pages and reading the brief words. You really didn't need a lot of words with this book. You know the saying "a picture is worth a thousand words?" This book is an example of that.
The illustrations are fantastic. Natalie was like, "I remember being so excited to see my Daddy again!"
You can buy Coming Home on Amazon here. It would make a fantastic Christmas gift or a gift for a child going through a deployment.
You can follow Greg Ruth on Twitter here.
I have a feeling we'll be going through this book many times when Tom is deployed. Thank you so much for having a giveaway, Julie!

ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic and touching story and review!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you liked it too! It is a great book and sounds like perfect timing for your family.
ReplyDeleteThis book sounds like a real winner and sometimes books with heavy illustrations are more important than the ones with heavy words.
