About the Author:
Christopher MacGregor (Author) When Army Officer Christopher MacGregor returned from Iraq in 2007, he began writing to help not only his own two children, but the children of others. Having commanded over 100 soldiers (with over 50 children between them) he noticed the beneficial effect of saying proper goodbyes and preparing families for Daddy's absence - his first book, My Daddy's Going Away is the heartwarming, helpful, and comforting response.Emma Yarlett (Illustrator) Emma Yarlett likes to paint, draw, collage, design, write, doodle, construct, invent, splatter and sketch. In 2011 she graduated with first class honours in Illustration from University College Falmouth and began her career as a illustrator and author.
Review:
"A bright lively story... This is an important book that deals with a difficult experience but with a light touch that children will enjoy" * The Bookseller * "This comforting and beautifully illustrated book is easy to understand and explores every part of a parent's absence in a calm and wise way." * Aldershot News and Mail * "My Daddy's Going Away is brilliantly realized, heartwarming story illustrated by rising star Emma Yarlett." * School Zone @ www.readingzone.com * "Cleverly, the book is easily adaptable for any situation and is suitable for families where a dad must be away should it be for the armed forces, sales or long distance driving." * chopsybaby.com * "A remarkable book" * Bringing Up Charlie blog *
