Tala and Flynn have three things in common - they are both ten, love their hamsters and both have a dad in prison. Their fathers were sent to prison when they were very young and won't be released until Tala and Flynn are teenagers. Tala writes a prison blog about what life is like since dad was taken away. Flynn makes video diaries of family days out to show dad when he comes home. We find out what it is like to have a parent in prison, how often you can visit, and what their friends do to help Tala and Flynn when they are missing dad.
