About This Book
When your child is feeling small or worried about being separated, this book offers a gentle reassurance. It follows a brass button that falls from a coat and embarks on a quiet adventure through the neighborhood. Passed from a goose to a stream to a young boy, the button's journey highlights the interconnectedness of the world. It’s a comforting story about how things, and people, can find their way back to where they belong, making it perfect for an observant child aged 4-7.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
None. The book is very gentle. The central 'conflict' of the button being lost is framed as a quiet adventure, not a trauma. Any feelings of separation are metaphorical and extremely mild, with a resolution that is wholly positive and reassuring.
Ideal Reader
A sensitive, observant child (ages 4-7) who notices small things in the world and enjoys quiet, detailed stories. It's also excellent for a child experiencing mild separation anxiety (e.g., starting school, a parent going on a short trip) as it provides a comforting narrative of return and belonging.
