Summary:
"BRAVE FOR MY FAMILY is a book for every American child to read and celebrate the bravery of those on the homefront when a parent is away fighting for our country. Davidson's father was deployed every year of his young life when, at 6 years old, four days before Christmas, the call came that he was injured by an RPG in Afghanistan. Davidson's journey during his father's service, recovery at Walter Reed hospital and his return to the battlefield is the heart this book, perfect for children ages 4-8. BRAVE FOR MY FAMILY is for every child who had to be brave when they were scared and should be required reading for every American child protected by our armed services. With vivid, compelling art by Davidson's own active duty father, this book shows readers that no matter what challenges they face, they are not alone."--Publisher's website.
