'Dad's gone away for a while, but I don't understand why. I miss him'. Every year in the UK, over 200,000 children suffer the trauma of parental imprisonment. Children with a parent in prison feel isolated, ashamed - unable to talk about their situation because they are scared of being bullied and judged. They often feel that they are to blame and having a parent in prison marks them as an outcast. This book explores the experience of having a parent in prison from a child's point of view.
