Booktalk: Explore and celebrate who you are and who others are too in this rhyming picture book of opposites.

Snippet:
You and I, we’re alike,
but we’re different too.

That’s not good.
That’s not bad.

It’s just what is true.

I’ll Always Come Back to You

I’ll Always Come Back to You

Booktalk: What happens when someone you love heads out the door? When a mother goes out to work and her daughter stays behind, Mom reassures her child that nothing can keep her from coming back home again. Mom promises that she would even ride on a whale or fight off a passel of bears, if that’s what it takes to return to her child! Her daughter might have to wait with Gramma or a friend at home. Whether their time apart has been long or short, the family will be together again.

Snippet:
I might have to visit a very sick friend,
or rescue a sinking canoe…

…but I will always, always, ALWAYS
come
back
to
you!
