When everything changes, children need an anchor.
There are moments in every child's life when the world feels too big, too fast, too uncertain. A grandparent's empty chair. A best friend who moved away. A pet who is no longer there. Parents living in different homes. A missed shot. A bad day with no explanation.
One More is a gentle, profound illustrated book that accompanies children aged 4-10 through ten of these universal moments - offering not easy answers, but something more valuable: the words to name what they feel, and the reassurance that they are not alone.
Each short story follows a different child facing a real emotional challenge. And in each story, there is always something that holds - a recipe on the fridge, a voice through the phone, a stuffed animal pulled from a moving box, a teammate's hug. A small, steady point. An anchor.
One More doesn't ask children to be brave. It simply reminds them that they can keep going.
- Validates big emotions in simple, honest language
- Opens conversations between children and the adults who love them
- Covers 10 sensitive themes: grief, friendship, bullying, moving, divorce, loss of a pet, sadness without a cause, guilt, failure and loneliness
- Evocative, warm illustrations on every page
- Builds emotional resilience - one story at a time
Because growing up doesn't mean avoiding the storms. It means learning to stay afloat while passing through them.
Perfect for: bedtime reading, emotional support, starting difficult conversations, school libraries, child therapists, and any adult looking for the right words.
