Just In Case You Want to Fly

Reach for this book when your child is facing a significant transition, such as starting school, moving to a new home, or simply growing into a new stage of independence. It serves as a lyrical safety net for children who are beginning to explore the world on their own, offering a whimsical toolkit of items they might need for their journey, from a map drawn on a napkin to a giant umbrella. This story is deeply comforting and helps normalize the mix of excitement and trepidation that comes with growing up. The rhythmic, poetic text and soft collage illustrations create a meditative space for parents and children to connect. It is an ideal choice for ages 3 to 7, reinforcing the vital message that while they are free to fly and explore, the warmth and safety of home will always be waiting for them exactly where they left it.
