But one rainy day when the mother takes the girl to the local bakery to meet a strange man, everything changes.
Mr. August, who has skin the color of coffee beans, brings his son, Alex, with him. He has a cool job aboard a US Navy ship and is super funny. Alex is very friendly and creative. A few months after Mr. August and the girl’s mom announce they are getting married, Mr. August officially becomes her father as two families blend into one and realize a new beginning together.
In this heartwarming tale for children, a girl and her mother become part of a newly blended military family as they continue on a loving journey through life together.
