Book Review and Giveaway: Cooper and Me and the Military!




A few months ago, I reviewed 'Cooper and Me and the Winter Adventure'.  Chad and I really enjoyed the fun characters in it.  Now, another Cooper and Me book is here!!  It is called 'Cooper and Me and the Military'.  

In this story, you will learn about Cooper's best friend, Trooper, and how he was adopted by a military family.  Also discussed in 'Cooper and Me and the Military' is how the kids in the family feel when their parents are gone serving our country, and the things they can do to stay close.

At the end of the book are a Life Lesson to go over with your child, Connections,  and Learning Together (questions about the book and the feelings your child might have).  Special in this book is 'My Letter', a fill-in-the-blank letter for your child to write, with an email address to send to the troops overseas!  Chad is really excited about sending his letter!!

Reading 'Cooper and Me and the Military' began a great discussion at our house.  My husband Jeff was in the Navy in the early years of our marriage, during the Persian Gulf War, until our oldest child was 1 1/2 years old.  We don't really talk about his time in the military very much, except the occasional mention of a country he has been to.  I realized our youngest, Chad, had no idea what his Dad did to serve our country.  We had a great conversation, and Chad enjoyed learning about his Dad's service.
