For the family waiting at home

Daddy drives far so we can stay close.

A team-driver job takes someone you love away for weeks at a time. That is hard on a family. This page is for the people who wait at home — and for the driver who carries them every mile.

Read it together.

“What Does Daddy Do?” is a short picture book that follows a friendly blue truck across the country and home again. Read it with your kids, so the days he is gone have a story they can hold. There is an English and a Spanish version.

Where does Daddy go?

While you are sleeping, his truck keeps rolling. He drives through the mountains. He drives along the coast. He drives into the big cities and back out again.

He is far away. But every mile is taking care of you.

Far away, still close.

Team driving means long stretches on the road and short windows at home. We will not pretend that is easy. But the miles he drives go straight home. They keep the lights on, the fridge full, and the family steady. He drives far so you can stay close.

We are proud of you, Daddy.
