The program offers a tangible way for children affected by incarceration to feel connected and loved by their missed parent, while building literacy skills and family connections.

Sometimes grandparents, or aunts and uncles participate in the program too.

My partner has had to move to Western Australia to be with his family but he says our two year old listens to me reading the dinosaur book every night in bed – it’s how he goes to sleep.  My little boy keeps the book with him
all the time. He takes it everywhere.
