A new home. A new school. Will Dontae find a place to belong?
When Dontae learns that his family is moving, his biggest worry is leaving his best friends, Malik and Jayden. They know his favorite games, his silly drawings, and exactly who he is. Starting over means meeting people who don't know him yet-and wondering whether he'll fit in.
With support from Mom and Dad, Dontae takes small steps toward friendship. A shared love of soccer helps him connect with new classmates, while calls with his old friends remind him that moving doesn't have to mean saying goodbye forever.
Dontae's Big Move is a warm, reassuring story about change, identity, and finding belonging while staying true to yourself.
The book also includes vocabulary, Read-Evaluate-Create activities, friendship reflections, and guidance for parents, caregivers, and educators. It invites children and the adults who care for them to explore big feelings, celebrate differences, and practice welcoming others.
