This book is brilliant and beautiful. Very colorful and realistic illustrations. A necessary read for single parents and their children. A difficult question is answered in a way that the parental relationship is preserved and the child understands that they are still loved. This book is a gem and worthy of being added to any home library. Well done❤️

I wish I would’ve had this book in hands when my daughter was just a lil child, because there are no truer words than this! Although it’s never too late, I can’t wait to share this book w/ my now 16yr old daughter. Such a fun way to make light of a heavy hearted conversation. I will continue to purchase this book for any of my single momma friends/family!

Bought this for my daughters. From a woman that has raised her kids since birth alone, felt this is an amazing expression of how we live day to day explaining to our children. Weather it be a dad or mom there are always questions from our kids that nobody hears, but us. Thank you Monica for portraying it in a way that everyone could understand.

This book is a valuable resource for parents and children of divorce. Beautifully written and lovingly illustrated, it features a mother answering her young daughter’s questions about their new living arrangement that no longer includes her father. Each time the little girl asks, “Momma, where is Daddy?” her mother provides her with answers that reassure her that her father still loves her and will continue to be a loving, supportive presence in her life. I found the book to be well-crafted, enlightening and moving.

Emotional, inspiring….beautiful! I had my 17 yr old daughter, who was raised by a single parent, also read the book. Her eyes were filled with tenderness, no doubt finding all the words.
