Reach for this book when your child is facing a major transition, particularly a move to a new home, and is struggling with the loss of their familiar environment. Through the eyes of Felix the cat, children can externalize their own anxiety as they watch his favorite things, including his yellow bowl, disappear into boxes. It is a comforting tool for validating the sense of confusion that comes with a big life change. This story is perfectly pitched for preschoolers and early elementary students, offering a gentle reassurance that even when everything seems to be going away, the most important things, like family and love, always find their way back. It provides a safe space for parents to discuss the temporary nature of 'moving day' chaos and the joy of settling into a new space together.
