This has been the week of all weeks. Thank you for your endless excitement on yesterday’s news. Today, I am so happy to be able to share the second book I’ve been pouring my heart into this last year.
Coming June 2024: You’ll Always Have a Friend, What to Do When the Lonelies Come. 🥹
I remember what it feels like to walk into a lunchroom, heart in my throat, all eyes on me, while I looked table to table hoping someone would invite me over… patting the seat next to them, making a spot for me.
I remember being chosen last for kickball or hiding in the play-tunnel because I had no friend to play with on the playground. Walking through these scenarios and feelings ALL of us experience at some point with my own kids, I just knew we needed a special book to show our children ways to make friends and ways to BE friends.
I have so much more to say about these childhood moments and about friendship in general, but for now, it would mean the absolute world to me if you’d pre-order this special, special book. Thank you with all my heart for all your love and support of my work.
with love,
Emily
