Sometimes Love

A young girl's mother is deployed overseas, and the girl has to spend a stretch of time away from her beloved dog. This picture book follows her military family through moments of gladness and sorrow as they learn to adjust when circumstances shift.

Written in sparse, musical verse, the book looks at the many ways love shows itself: through generosity, through growing closer together, and sometimes through letting go. The pet storyline wraps up on a cheerful note.
