Sophie writes to her daddy while he is far away at sea, and the pictures let you follow both of their worlds at once. At home, Sophie moves through ordinary family days with her mother and little brother as the seasons change. On the other side of the world, her father works aboard a freighter, surrounded by very different weather, landscapes, and routines. Philippe Dupasquier's thoughtful picture book uses its split scenes to show distance, longing, and connection in a way young readers can understand. It is a gentle family story for children who know what it feels like to miss someone and still feel close to them.
