About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is feeling small, overlooked, or needing an extra dose of reassurance about their place in the world. It is the perfect choice for bedtime after a tough day or during a transition, such as the arrival of a new sibling, when a child might wonder if the love surrounding them is still there. The story follows a young boy named Conrad as he explores the many sources of affection in his life, from his immediate family and friends to his pets. Through simple, repetitive affirmations, it reinforces a sense of belonging and security. Best suited for children aged 2 to 6, this book acts as a gentle mirror, reflecting back the warmth of a supportive community and helping children build a foundation of self-confidence and gratitude.
