About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is facing their first major separation from a best friend, whether due to a school break, a move, or summer camp. It serves as a gentle guide for maintaining long-distance connections and managing the anxiety of feeling left out while others are off having new experiences. The story follows Pru, Abigail, and Lucky as they navigate individual spring break challenges, from managing new responsibilities to feeling like an outsider in their own family. Through a unique letter-writing format, the book models how to be a supportive friend from afar. It is an excellent choice for children aged 8 to 12 who value social loyalty and are beginning to navigate the complexities of blended families and growing independence. Parents will appreciate how it validates the 'fear of missing out' while encouraging resilience and self-reliance.
