Reach for this book when your child is grappling with the 'what ifs' of being lost or separated from you. It provides a safe, cozy space to explore the scary feeling of falling out of a routine and into the unknown, ultimately proving that those who love us will always come looking. Through the eyes of Biff and Buff, tiny dogs who live in their owner's pockets, children see their own vulnerability reflected in a way that feels manageable rather than overwhelming. It is a perfect choice for preschool and early elementary children who are beginning to navigate larger worlds like school or playgroups. You might choose it to build a 'safety bridge' of trust, showing that even when things go wrong, there is a path back to the comfort of a warm pocket and a familiar face.
