Imagery from the author's flight suit and life.


 

 

Good Night Captain Mama is a multicultural, bedtime, early picture book of 750 words, targeted at children between the ages of four and six. The main character is a young boy in pajamas. As he passes Mama’s bedroom, he sees her putting on her olive-green Air Force-issued flight suit for the first time. The child is curious about the colorful patches on the uniform. The patches’ symbolism helps aviator Mama explain what it means to serve in the U.S. Air Force. Story was inspired by a conversation between the author and her preschooler.
