Sweet little book about missing someone

I love this book! It helps kids work through missing someone (parent going to work, business trips, grandparents, etc.) and gives them ideas about what to do to cope with missing someone. This is NOT a book about loss! Just simply about dealing with being away from a loved one for a short while. Perfect for kids that experience separation anxiety!
