We're Moving House

Reach for this book when your child is facing a major transition, particularly a move to a new house, and is alternating between nervous energy and quiet sadness. It serves as a gentle bridge between the grand, often misunderstood expectations children have about 'moving house' and the emotional reality of leaving a place of comfort. The story follows a young boy who initially imagines his literal house being transported by cranes and ships, treating the move like a fantastical parade. As the reality of packing and leaving his familiar nooks sets in, the tone shifts to a nuanced exploration of nostalgia and anxiety. For parents, this book is a valuable tool to validate a child's imagination while helping them process the 'letting go' process. It is perfectly suited for children aged 3 to 7, offering both humor and a secure emotional resolution.
