A story of the unbreakable bond between a courageous veteran, his loving daughter, and an animal hero who helps them realize the true meaning of service and strength.

Maria Jimenez is very proud of her Daddy. He is in the military and always brings Maria souvenirs from the countries he visits which Maria happily takes to school for show and tell. Whenever he is home between deployments, Maria and her Dad have the best time going to their favorite place- the local primate sanctuary- to see the monkeys. Maria's stuffed monkey, Ebeneezer, always tags along on the adventures. 

Then one day everything changes. Maria's father returns home early from a deployment with an injury. Maria doesn't know how to reach him. He is quiet and withdrawn and needs a lot of help from Maria and her mom. How will Maria help her dad? Maria doesn't know all the answers, but she does know two things. We are stronger together than alone and her Daddy will always be her hero.
