A Must Have For Any Separation Situation

My children love this book, and so do I. This re-assuring book helps children understand that mom always comes back. Wonderful for the first day of preschool, child's first time with a new babysitter, or any situation where a child is sad that mom/dad is leaving. Beautifully written.

my granddaughter's favorite

When my daughter is on a business trip, this is the book my granddaughter wants me to read. Poetic and eloquent, it touches the heart whether you're two years old or the grandmother of a two year old. The book's subject - Mama's gone away but she'll be back soon - fills a true void in children's literature. It's wonderful!
