Sharing My
First Responder
With colorful, illustrations and engaging storytelling, this book not only educates children about what first responders are, but also about “big feelings” and how to cope with them when sharing their first responder.
What readers are saying…
-
“We love this book! As a mom and police wife, this story resonated so well with us. This adorable story is geared towards children who have a first responder parent and what it can feel like when that family member is away. It emphasizes self-care and encourages children to express themselves. I’m so glad there is a children’s book that not only touches on the home life of first responders, and how long hours and busy schedules can affect their children, but also give children ways to cope with the sacrifice of sharing their first responder parent.”

“I read this to my young daughters while their police officer Dad is on duty and it always helps to remind us that all of our feelings are ok to have (Mom included!). We love that it's short and sweet for their little attention spans, and the girls especially love the song and the illustrations. Bonus points for being inclusive of all first responders so that it's applicable to a wide range of families.”

"It feels like this book was written for our family. I've had to explain to my kids why their dad doesn't come home every night like their friends' dads so having a book like this helps that process so much. It allows them to see themselves in a story and validates their experience. Even though it's written for kids, its reminders are always great for me to hear as well. Such a beautiful little book for the whole fam!"
