Reach for this book when your child is facing a major transition, particularly if you are returning to work or starting a new job. It is specifically designed to soothe the deep-seated fear children often have that their parent's focus on a new responsibility might lead them to forget the small, intimate details of their relationship. The story follows young Nikki as she repeatedly asks her mother if she will remember her name, her favorite things, and her very identity while Mom is busy at her new office. Phyllis Rose Eisenberg captures the logic of childhood anxiety with great empathy. Through gentle repetition and the reassurance of shared family rituals, the book reinforces that love is constant even when physical presence is interrupted. This is an ideal selection for children aged 3 to 7 who are struggling with separation anxiety or feeling displaced by a parent's changing schedule.
