Police Officer Mommy Leah Anaya

Police Officer Mommy is a grand children's book that kids can relate too and parents will love to read to their child, Anaya paints a memorable day-in-the-life picture from sunrise to bedtime of a police officer through her small daughter's viewpoint. Young readers follow the little girl as she watches her mommy get ready to serve, goes to the police station for a visit, sits in a patrol car, and thinks about how much she misses her mom as bedtime approaches.

"I wrote this book to help children feel comfort over missing their police parent and help them understand what their parent goes through during a typical day at work," said Anaya, who served in the Army and as a police officer in California and Washington state. "This book is also entertaining for kids who love police officers and are curious about what they do while on duty."
