About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is feeling a little unsure of their place in the world or needs a concentrated dose of security before a transition, like starting daycare or a new sibling's arrival. This gentle, personalized story acts as a verbal hug, systematically listing the many people in a child's life who hold them dear. It is less about a complex plot and more about establishing a foundational sense of belonging and self-worth through the power of names. Designed for the toddler and preschool years, the book uses rhythmic repetition to help children internalize the message that they are surrounded by a community of love. It is an ideal choice for bedtime or quiet 1:1 time, providing a predictable structure that builds confidence and vocabulary. By the final page, a child named Wesson will feel seen, celebrated, and deeply connected to their family circle.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book is entirely secular and positive. It does not address trauma or loss, focusing instead on the presence of a supportive network. It is a tool for reinforcement rather than a solution for complex family dynamics.
Ideal Reader
A toddler named Wesson who is experiencing a 'velcro' phase or separation anxiety. It is particularly effective for children who find comfort in hearing their own name and the names of their favorite people repeated.
