A little boy named Marco is walking to his bedroom in pajamas carrying his stuffed puppy dog when he notices his mommy in an olive-green military flight suit. His curiosity about the colorful patches on her uniform evolves into a sweet, reassuring bedtime conversation between a military mother and her child about why she serves and what she does in the unusual KC-135R aerial refueling airplane. He drifts off to sleep with thoughts of his mommy in the airplane and the special surprise she gave him stuck to his fleece pajamas. This unique book was written by a Latina military officer and former aviator. It's the first bilingual children's book, in English and Spanish, about why mommies wear military uniforms.

"Good Night Captain Mama" captures the essence of a child's wonder and admiration of his mother's career, while giving the reader a clear and loving explanation of what it's like being in the United States Air Force. It's especially exciting that my students get to learn this information from a mother's perspective. This is a must-have book for school libraries across the nation."
