"Mama, what will I do if I miss you?"
"Hmm. That's a good question," she said. "Let's try something."
Alex's mom took his hand in hers and moved it over his heart.
"Can you feel your heart beating . . . thump, thump?"
Alex is starting day school, but thinking about being away from his mom for so long makes him feel worried! So he and his mom devise a plan to use their magical connection-heart to heart-to feel close to one another even if they cannot be together.
Based on a true story from author Melissa Shultz, and with magical illustrations by Lilia Miceli, What Will I Do if I Miss You? is a comforting resource for any family with working parents or children navigating new beginnings and time spent apart.
