Counting the Days is a heartwarming picture book that shows us what bravery, hope and the unity of family is all about. With her daddy's help, little Hunter counts the days until her mommy returns home from military deployment. Together Daddy and Hunter find creative ways to mark the time while they wait. With age-appropriate text that tenderly invites us along to count the days with Hunter, and beautiful, highly colored illustrations, we find ourselves eagerly awaiting her mommy's return. This project is supported in part by awards from the National Endowment for the Arts, the State of Florida, Department of State, Division of Cultural Affairs, The Florida Council on Arts and Culture, the Community Foundation of Martin - St. Lucie, and the Arts Council of Martin County.
