Publisher's Synopsis

Timmy, and his little sister Kate, struggle to understand why Uncle can't come home despite all the hard things that are happening. Momma helps explain that it's not Uncle's choice to stay away. Uncle was wrongfully convicted, and sometimes people are punished for things they didn't really do. This story is designed to help address the hard questions of children who are struggling with the wrongful conviction of a loved one.

This book received 5 Honorable Mentions in the 2018 Purple Dragonfly Book Awards in the categories of Best Cover Design, Best Illustration, Family Matters, Picture Books 5 & Younger, and Picture Books 6 & Older. It is designed as the first in the Where is Uncle? series, helping children struggling with the adverse childhood experience (ACE) of incarceration.
