Free eBooks
‘Waiting for Daddy‘ and ‘Now that I am big’ are research-based storybooks for young children, with research information in the back for parents, educators and family workers. It was produced from research data and findings as part of Marg’s PhD study entitled ‘Young children’s experiences and understandings of parental deployment within an Australian Defence Force family‘. The eBooks are available free to parents, children, educators and family workers in partnership with the Defence Community Organisation in the hope to make research accessible to the public and create impact from research.
