The Second Lady of the United States hopes her experiences will help military kids.

Jill Biden has written a children's book meant to help kids whose parents are serving dangerous deployments.

The vice president's wife took inspiration from her son's deployment in Iraq three years ago and the affect it had on the Biden family, especially Beau's daughter.

The book focuses on Natalie, who is now four-years-old, and how the Biden family helped her deal with her father's time serving in a war zone.
