For a Big Move
A Personalized Book for a Big Move
Help a child through a move with a book that carries the old home, the family, and the hope of the new place all in one story.
The old home, the new one, and the family that travels between them.
A way to carry the old home along
A move asks a child to leave a lot behind. A book keeps the old house, the old room, the old street safe on the page, so it is never fully gone.
And a hopeful look at the new one
The same book turns toward the new home with hope: new rooms to fill, a new street to learn, the same family in all of it.
The family is the constant
Houses change. The book makes clear what does not: the people. The family is the home that comes along.
Ideas to Start With
Every book begins with a moment. Here are a few to spark yours.
Goodbye, Old House
A warm, honest goodbye to a first home, the rooms and the memories thanked one by one.
The Big Move
The boxes, the truck, the long drive. The adventure of moving, the family together through all of it.
Our New Home
A hopeful story of the new place becoming home, one room and one day at a time.
Your book begins set to this occasion, with these ideas as starting points. You can change anything.
Take a Look Inside a Finished Book
Every page is written and illustrated, and the same characters carry through the whole book. Read a real one, cover to cover, before you start your own.
