Together with You

Together with You is a beautifully illustrated, rhyming picture book that lovingly portrays the unique connection between a grandparent and grandchild. Through the changing seasons, they share simple, joyful activities like splashing in puddles, savoring frozen treats, flying kites, and sipping cocoa. The narrative is a sweet, tender 'love letter' from the child's perspective, emphasizing that every day is better when spent together. It's an ideal read-aloud for ages 4-8, and older children up to 11 might enjoy reading it independently or gifting it. The gentle text and art make it a comforting story perfect for bedtime or quiet moments.

From the team that brought us Pick a Pine Tree and Pick a Pumpkin, a big-hearted story about the love between grandparent and grandchild takes us through the seasons. For one grandmother and grandchild, keeping dry in spring showers is easy when dashing through the drops side by side. In summer they stay cool with a squirt of the hose, then savor frozen treats in the shade. In autumn, snug in sweaters, they fly a kite while leaning into each other against the wind. And winter finds them nestling under blankets, sipping cocoa and watching the snow quietly fall. Narrated as a kind of love letter from a young child to a grandparent, this picture book pairs Patricia Toht’s safe, tender text with gentle art from Jarvis that meets it at every turn. An ideal gift from grandparent to grandchild (or the other way around), this charming story makes it clear that “no matter the weather, whatever we do, every day’s better together with you.”
