| 9781735331416 | Why My Hero Had to Go | Talitha Vickers | "Why My Hero Had to Go" is a children's picture book that brings to life the parallel experiences of a parent and a child separated by the call of duty. Journey through the pages as the curtain is pulled back to show the heartfelt voice of a parent leaving for deployment or as a front line worker. Children gain a better sense of understanding and responsibility as they tag along with the main character Jared who is on a special mission with pet Baily and his cuddly bear. With heartfelt poetic words "Why My Hero Had to Go" offers a different perspective for children to know that they are not alone. Creating a book that speaks to the voice of the untold stories was critical to author Talitha Vickers. Drawing from her own personal experience Vickers puts words to emotions that there are often no words for and that is what makes "Why My Hero Had to Go" resonate with all readers. The imagination of Illustrator Keith Hobgood opens the door to a world that a child would otherwise never see though each hand drawn page. The nontraditional layout of Hobgood's illustrations shows how much a child and parent have in common on a daily basis. This book serves as critical resource for all front line workers, military families, their neighbors, teachers and fellow students to have a first-hand look at a different perspective of families that have a unique dynamic. | |
