The ideal reader is an 18-month to 3-year-old who is testing boundaries or experiencing separation anxiety. It's also a perfect first book for new parents looking for a simple, heartfelt script to establish a loving reading ritual with their infant or young toddler.
Parent Prep
No preparation is needed. This book can be read cold at any moment. Parents may want to be ready to offer lots of cuddles, as the book's gentle tone and message invite physical affection.
