It's PCS Season, Riley's Journey to Discover PCS Season

Have you ever wanted to travel the world? Many military families are afforded this opportunity when a family member serving in the armed forces begins a tour of duty. A tour of duty is a period of time when an active duty service member serves at a particular location. Families could be assigned to locations from six months to three years.

Many people in the military community call the most popular time for location reassignments PCS (Permanent Change of Station) Season. As you can imagine, a sudden or planned relocation can be hard for children to understand and adapt. The PCS Season book series gives a glimpse into the lives of military families and most importantly, the military-connected children.

In this first book of the series, meet Riley. Her story is based on real events. Join her on the journey as she discovers what PCS Season is all about and learn how her family helped to her understand the meaning of PCS Season.
