Big feelings.
Little moments together.

A book to return to as your child grows, one shared reading moment at a time.

Read together

Make room for feelings

Pause for questions and give little ones space to share what they notice.

A story can be the start of a cuddle, a connection or a little understanding.

All feelings
are welcome here.

With warmth, Maria
A note from the author

Written from
the heart.

I wrote this story for my son and the big feelings that come with being little. I wanted to make space for those feelings, and for the conversations that help us understand them together.

My hope is that Soc and Pete become familiar friends in your home, too.
