About This Book
A perfect picture book for toddlers on the go! All toddlers live by the pleasure principle. For them, fun times always end too soon. So often they either turn a deaf ear to the words "It's time to say bye-bye" or simply throw a tantrum. What is the solution? In this warm-hearted picture book, Maryann Cocca-Leffler follows a toddler from morning to bedtime, showing that all saying "byebye" really means is that you're ready to say "hello" to the next fun thing on your "agenda." With a bare minimum
Our Review
This gentle picture book offers a reassuring approach to helping toddlers navigate daily transitions, transforming the dreaded "bye-bye" into an opportunity for new adventures. The story follows a young child through familiar daily routines from morning play to bedtime, showing how each ending leads to a fresh beginning. With minimal text and expressive illustrations, this early childhood book makes abstract concepts about time and change accessible to preschool readers. Parents will appreciate how it validates children's feelings while providing a positive framework for handling separations and schedule changes.
What sets this transition book apart is its focus on the emotional landscape of toddlerhood, acknowledging that endings can feel difficult while highlighting the excitement of what comes next. The simple, repetitive structure makes it ideal for children who struggle with daily routines or separation anxiety. Caregivers will find this developmental picture book particularly helpful for preparing children for daycare drop-offs, ending playdates, or moving between activities. By reframing goodbyes as gateways to new experiences, this story empowers young children to face transitions with more confidence and less resistance.
