Where Do You Go When You're Not With Me

What do parents do all day after they say goodbye?

In this heartwarming picture book, a young child imagines all the places a parent might go after school drop-off. Through playful rhymes and beautifully illustrated scenes, Where Do You Go When You're Not With Me celebrates the love that remains even when families spend time apart.

As the story unfolds, children discover that while parents may have different kinds of work and responsibilities, they are always connected by love, and always looking forward to being together again.

Created for children ages 2 to 6, this story opens the door to meaningful conversations about work, family, curiosity, empathy, and the many ways people care for one another. The book concludes with an author's note and simple conversation starters designed to help families, caregivers, and early childhood educators continue the dialogue long after the last page is turned.

Perfect for:

• Working families
• Preschool and kindergarten classrooms
• Bedtime and family reading
• Gifts for new parents, grandparents, and caregivers
• Helping children navigate daycare, preschool, and time apart with confidence

Because every goodbye is followed by the joy of coming back together.
