Bethany Patterson BCBA, LBA and Assistant Director at HPBS, has been a military spouse to a submariner for 5 years. Her submariner was on sea duty when she wrote this book for her 1-year-old daughter about the unique lifestyle of the submarine life and how to cope with being a submarine child. Bethany published this book in 2019 with Chelsea Conley, the illustrator. Be on the lookout for other military related books for children!
Daddy's Submarine is a social story displayed with bright colors and beautiful pictures to help children understand the complex life on submarines and the hardships of submarine deployments.
