When My Dad Comes Home.... Cory Crosby

Cory Crosby spent much of his time in prison wondering how to explain to his children why he wasn't a part of their life. But lacking the right words, he took the tools he had on hand, pens and paper and a love for illustration and writing, and used those to express what he could not over a prison phone line or during infrequent visits. "When My Dad Comes Home," is a children's book that combines the writings of Crosby and illustrations of Candice Malveaux to put into simple language several instances where a father might be absent for an extended period and how they and the children value time together when reunited.
