From the author

I wrote Whenever You Miss Me, Look for the Moon for children who are learning what it means to miss someone they love.

As both an author and someone who has spent many years working closely with young children, I understand how deeply those feelings can be held, especially at bedtime, when everything becomes a little quieter.

This story was created to offer comfort, connection, and reassurance,  helping children feel close to the people they love, even when they are far away.

My hope is that this book becomes a gentle companion… something a child can return to whenever they need to feel safe, remembered, and never alone.
