No matter where duty takes you, your heart is home with your children. Now your voice can be, too.

As a fellow parent and a Navy veteran, I understand the unique family challenges we face as servicemembers. The long deployments, training missions, and countless nights on duty spent away from our little ones. It's never easy being apart, especially when we are missing out on important bonding routines like bedtime storybook reading.

That's why I came on board as the product design engineer of the Recordable Book Buddy. This innovative audio recording device allows you to read your child's favorite books, no matter where you are in the world. Imagine the joy on their faces as they hear your voice telling their beloved bedtime stories, giving them comfort and a sense of closeness even when you're miles away.

With the Recordable Book Buddy, your presence is just a button press away. Whether you're stationed overseas, on a mission, or simply working late, your children can always hear you read to them, providing them with the security and love they need.
